Any violation(s) documented may impact the compliance history score. The violation(s) documented must be corrected immediately. On or before February 12, 2026, I must receive a written, dated, and signed compliance letter that describes accurately and in detail, how and when the violations were corrected. Please be aware any information submitted by you is legal documentation. If it is determined the information provided in the letter is not true, this may be considered falsification of information. If sufficient information is not received by the due date, a follow-up visit will be conducted. Mail or email the information to: Megan Brown, Child Care Consultant PO BOX 191 Ayden, NC 28513 Megan.Brown@dhhs.nc.gov If you email the compliance letter, it must be sent from the email address registered with the DCDEE (this serves as your signature) and the following information must be included: name, position, facility name, and facility ID number. An example is: Jane Doe, Administrator AAA Child Care ID # 12345678 Technical assistance was provided on the following: Fire Inspection Reports: Maintain current inspections is essential to maintaining a safe environment for children. An approved inspection was completed on September 9, 2025; however the inspection report was not received until today’s visit. You were not aware that the inspector does not submit the fire inspections to DCDEE Set a reminder to send the inspection report within five days of an approved inspection. A safe outdoor environment was not provided for the children with holes in the back gate and side fence on the park playground. The holes created spaces for entrapment.

Rust on the metal landing of the stationary climber was exposed no the preschool playground. Mulch measures less than an inch on the preschool playground. You stated you contacted the facility maintenance director during the visit, and he has someone to fix the fence and pressure wash. Retrain your staff conducting the playground inspections to submit hazards immediately. Annual Staff Evaluation and Staff Development Plans: Employers who routinely review employee performance and conduct regular employee evaluations reap tremendous benefits. Your employees will know what you expect of them. They will receive feedback, praise, and criticism of their work, and will have notice of any shortfalls in their performance or conduct. You can recognize and reward good employees and identify and coach workers who are having trouble. The communication required to make the evaluation process effective ensures that you will stay in tune with the needs and concerns of your workforce. Because the center meets enhanced standards, an annual staff evaluation and professional staff development plan must be completed annually. Nine of your staff did not have an annual evaluation and professional development plan for review. As discussed, consider completing these two items at the same time each year. Additional Comments: Today we discussed your facilities three-month self-study. You stated that your staff have already begun their studies. We discussed contacting the QUEST consultants for assistance. I shared with you that in the school age classroom additional cardboard blocks are needed to replace worn blocks. We also reviewed incorporating math language into your ECERS classrooms. Submit your rated license application by April 15, 2026.

You stated you contacted the facility maintenance director during the visit, and he has someone to fix the fence and pressure wash. Retrain your staff conducting the playground inspections to submit hazards immediately. Annual Staff Evaluation and Staff Development Plans: Employers who routinely review employee performance and conduct regular employee evaluations reap tremendous benefits. Your employees will know what you expect of them. They will receive feedback, praise, and criticism of their work, and will have notice of any shortfalls in their performance or conduct. You can recognize and reward good employees and identify and coach workers who are having trouble. The communication required to make the evaluation process effective ensures that you will stay in tune with the needs and concerns of your workforce. Because the center meets enhanced standards, an annual staff evaluation and professional staff development plan must be completed annually. Nine of your staff did not have an annual evaluation and professional development plan for review. As discussed, consider completing these two items at the same time each year. Additional Comments: Today we discussed your facilities three-month self-study. You stated that your staff have already begun their studies.

L. Vines assisted me with the visit. Your program currently operates with a five-star license, issued 8/10/22, earning 7 points in the education component, 6 points in the program standards component (meeting enhanced space and ratio) and 1 quality point for having a staff benefits package and an infrastructure of parent involvement. Your program was also monitored for compliance with implementing an approved curriculum as required for all four and five star licensed facilities where four-year-old children are enrolled. The last annual compliance visit was conducted 3/5/24. The sanitation inspection was completed 10/16/24 with a “Approved” classification. The last fire inspection was conducted 9/6/24 and your facility was approved for day time care only. The center's compliance history was reviewed with the operator. The program’s compliance history was eighty-three percent as of 2/12/24. The NC Secretary of State website was reviewed on 3/24/23 and Greenville Community Christian Church, Incorporated was listed as current- active. Children were observed in the indoor learning environment. In classroom space #8 children were observed transitioning from free play to carpet for a reading/phonics activity. Children enrolled in classroom space #6 were observed during indoor gross motor activities in the hallway, using hula hoops and balls of various sizes. Transportation requirements were not monitored during this visit. The lunch menu reflected chicken drumettes, chicken and broccoli, pears, rolls and milk. The following violations were documented.

In classroom space #8 there was a container of Great Value Disinfectant Wipes stored on top a bag hanging from the child’s bathroom door. When asked staff state that they did not have a chance to lock the wipes back up. Review storage of hazardous items with staff. Discipline: Discipline is best received when it includes positive guidance, redirection, and setting clear-cut limits that foster the child’s ability to become self-disciplined. In order to respond effectively when children display challenging behavior, it is beneficial for caregivers/teachers to understand typical social and emotional development and behaviors. In classroom space #7, I observed three children’s papers with the statement “ Tuesday too much noise” written repeatedly thirty times. When I brought this to your attention you stated that it was a write-off, where the children had to write because they did not follow the rules. We discussed the use of discipline and classroom management. Discipline is an ongoing process to help children develop inner control so they can manage their own behavior in a socially approved manner. Contact the Healthy Social Behavior Specialist for additional assistance. The Healthy Social Behaviors (HSB) Project supports teachers to promote healthy social-emotional development and reduce the expulsion rate among young children in licensed child care centers across North Carolina.

Please be aware any information submitted by you is legal documentation. If it is determined the information provided in the letter is not true, this may be considered falsification of information. If sufficient information is not received by the due date, a follow-up visit will be conducted. Mail or email the information to: Megan Brown, Child Care Consultant PO BOX 3187 Greenville, NC 27836 Megan.Brown@dhhs.nc.gov If you email the compliance letter, it must be sent from the email address registered with the DCDEE (this serves as your signature) and the following information must be included: name, position, facility name, and facility ID number. An example is: Jane Doe, Administrator AAA Child Care ID # 12345678 Technical assistance was provided on the following: Staff Records: The health and safety of children requires that information regarding each staff working with the children should be kept and available when needed. Staff records consist of various documentation to include emergency contact information. A Staff Medical Report and TB Screening/Test is due for new employees by their first day of work and not be older than 12 months to ensure they are physically, mentally, and emotionally well enough to care for children in a busy, rigorous environment. We discussed that when a staff member is no longer employed with the center, they need to complete new employee documentation if they are rehired to the center. Use the current Staff and Training Worksheet to help you verify that all required forms are on file. Placing each form in the same order as the worksheet makes it even quicker and easier to review files and update the worksheet. CPR/First Aid: Knowing what to do in an emergency medical situation can mean the difference between life or death. Being trained in CPR and first aid can be invaluable when someone is in serious medical distress. Therefore, it is so important that all staff working directly with children have current CPR and First Aid Certification. Staff have 90 days from the day of hire to complete the required training. Staff J. Corbett rehired on 2/12/24 did not have CPR and First Aid training on file. This is a repeat violation from the annual compliance visit on 3/5/24. We discussed that repeat violations may lead to the issuance of an administrative action. Aquatic Policy: The circumstances surrounding drownings and water related injuries of young children suggest that staffing requirements and environmental modifications may reduce the risk of this type of injury. An aquatic policy is required that addresses hazards, supervision, discipline, and emergencies. The field trip activities include trips to Greenville Outdoor Aquatic Center, you supplied signed documents from parents of the aquatic center’s policy waiver. You stated that the facility did not have a current aquatic policy, but you had the facilities old policy available. I reviewed the aquatic policy and requested updates based on the child care rules. You begin working on updating this policy during today’s visit. Once you have the updated policy review with staff and supply parents with a copy of the new policy prior to attending any schedule activity days at the aquatic center. Emergency Drills: Fire drills are required to be conducted at least monthly to ensure that the operator and children are aware of what actions to take in the event of a life-threatening emergency. It is important that you use the pull station that is installed in your facility as the source of notification. You stated that you are certain the drills were completed, but you did not document the drill and were unable to supply additional documentation. Set a reminder once a month to conduct your fire drills. A safe indoor and outdoor environment was not provided for the children with damaged items and equipment that were accessible to the children. It is important that the outdoor area is checked daily, and proper upkeep is conducted to ensure the environment is safe for use. Mulch was observed to be three inches or less under all stationary climbers and swings. We discussed that the playground inspections for May and June noted that mulch failed inspection and you stated that you were working on ordering more. Broken equipment was found in each outdoor space including a swing, riding toy, and portable climber with slide. During the daily playground check, remove or repair broken equipment. While children were playing on the preschool playground, the back gate was left open. We discussed that after maintenance cuts the grass, the door needs to be closed so that the children cannot run out. Storage of Hazardous Items: Intentional planning of the environment ensures a safe environment has been created which prevents and reduces injuries to young children. Check first aid kits before placing them in classrooms and vehicles and remove items that you cannot use with children. You stated that you were unaware that these items needed to be removed and would remove them immediately. Check vehicles before field trips to ensure that hazardous materials are removed before transporting. Review storage of hazardous materials with staff and designated areas for storage. Medication: Administering medication requires skill, knowledge and careful attention to detail. Parents/guardians and prescribing health professionals must give a caregiver/teacher written authorization to administer medication to the child. Authorization forms should include specifics on how and when to administer the medication. Caregivers/teachers must be diligent in their adherence to the medication administration policy and procedures to prevent any inadvertent medication errors, which may be harmful to the child. Emergency Medication are not required to be locked but must be inaccessible to children (stored above five feet).There is always a risk that a child may have a negative reaction to a medication, and children should be monitored for serious side effects that may require an emergency response. Additional Comments: We discussed over the counter medications required for medical action plans. I provided you with a medication flyer. Reminders: The Healthy Social Behaviors (HSB) Project supports teachers to promote healthy social-emotional development and reduce the expulsion rate among young children in licensed child care centers across North Carolina. The team is made up of specialists with early childhood education backgrounds who are passionate about empowering teachers to develop learning environments and teaching practices that promote prosocial skills in young children.

Child Care programs are expected to achieve and maintain compliance at all times and are required by NC GS 110-90(4) (d) to achieve and maintain an eighteen-month compliance history score of at least seventy-five percent. Any violation(s) documented may impact the compliance history score. The violation(s) documented must be corrected immediately. On or before July 5, 2024, I must receive a written, dated, and signed compliance letter that describes accurately and in detail, how and when the violations were corrected. Please be aware any information submitted by you is legal documentation. If it is determined the information provided in the letter is not true, this may be considered falsification of information. If sufficient information is not received by the due date, a follow-up visit will be conducted. Mail or email the information to: Megan Brown, Child Care Consultant PO BOX 3187 Greenville, NC 27836 Megan.Brown@dhhs.nc.gov If you email the compliance letter, it must be sent from the email address registered with the DCDEE (this serves as your signature) and the following information must be included: name, position, facility name, and facility ID number. An example is: Jane Doe, Administrator AAA Child Care ID # 12345678 Technical assistance was provided on the following: Staff Records: The health and safety of children requires that information regarding each staff working with the children should be kept and available when needed. Staff records consist of various documentation to include emergency contact information. A Staff Medical Report and TB Screening/Test is due for new employees by their first day of work and not be older than 12 months to ensure they are physically, mentally, and emotionally well enough to care for children in a busy, rigorous environment. We discussed that when a staff member is no longer employed with the center, they need to complete new employee documentation if they are rehired to the center. Use the current Staff and Training Worksheet to help you verify that all required forms are on file. Placing each form in the same order as the worksheet makes it even quicker and easier to review files and update the worksheet. CPR/First Aid: Knowing what to do in an emergency medical situation can mean the difference between life or death. Being trained in CPR and first aid can be invaluable when someone is in serious medical distress. Therefore, it is so important that all staff working directly with children have current CPR and First Aid Certification. Staff have 90 days from the day of hire to complete the required training. Staff J. Corbett rehired on 2/12/24 did not have CPR and First Aid training on file. This is a repeat violation from the annual compliance visit on 3/5/24. We discussed that repeat violations may lead to the issuance of an administrative action. Aquatic Policy: The circumstances surrounding drownings and water related injuries of young children suggest that staffing requirements and environmental modifications may reduce the risk of this type of injury. An aquatic policy is required that addresses hazards, supervision, discipline, and emergencies. The field trip activities include trips to Greenville Outdoor Aquatic Center, you supplied signed documents from parents of the aquatic center’s policy waiver. You stated that the facility did not have a current aquatic policy, but you had the facilities old policy available. I reviewed the aquatic policy and requested updates based on the child care rules. You begin working on updating this policy during today’s visit. Once you have the updated policy review with staff and supply parents with a copy of the new policy prior to attending any schedule activity days at the aquatic center. Emergency Drills: Fire drills are required to be conducted at least monthly to ensure that the operator and children are aware of what actions to take in the event of a life-threatening emergency. It is important that you use the pull station that is installed in your facility as the source of notification. You stated that you are certain the drills were completed, but you did not document the drill and were unable to supply additional documentation. Set a reminder once a month to conduct your fire drills. A safe indoor and outdoor environment was not provided for the children with damaged items and equipment that were accessible to the children. It is important that the outdoor area is checked daily, and proper upkeep is conducted to ensure the environment is safe for use. Mulch was observed to be three inches or less under all stationary climbers and swings. We discussed that the playground inspections for May and June noted that mulch failed inspection and you stated that you were working on ordering more. Broken equipment was found in each outdoor space including a swing, riding toy, and portable climber with slide. During the daily playground check, remove or repair broken equipment. While children were playing on the preschool playground, the back gate was left open. We discussed that after maintenance cuts the grass, the door needs to be closed so that the children cannot run out. Storage of Hazardous Items: Intentional planning of the environment ensures a safe environment has been created which prevents and reduces injuries to young children. Check first aid kits before placing them in classrooms and vehicles and remove items that you cannot use with children. You stated that you were unaware that these items needed to be removed and would remove them immediately. Check vehicles before field trips to ensure that hazardous materials are removed before transporting. Review storage of hazardous materials with staff and designated areas for storage. Medication: Administering medication requires skill, knowledge and careful attention to detail. Parents/guardians and prescribing health professionals must give a caregiver/teacher written authorization to administer medication to the child. Authorization forms should include specifics on how and when to administer the medication. Caregivers/teachers must be diligent in their adherence to the medication administration policy and procedures to prevent any inadvertent medication errors, which may be harmful to the child. Emergency Medication are not required to be locked but must be inaccessible to children (stored above five feet).There is always a risk that a child may have a negative reaction to a medication, and children should be monitored for serious side effects that may require an emergency response. Additional Comments: We discussed over the counter medications required for medical action plans. I provided you with a medication flyer.

Child Care programs are expected to achieve and maintain compliance at all times and are required by NC GS 110-90(4) (d) to achieve and maintain an eighteen-month compliance history score of at least seventy-five percent. Any violation(s) documented may impact the compliance history score. The violation(s) documented must be corrected immediately. On or before July 5, 2024, I must receive a written, dated, and signed compliance letter that describes accurately and in detail, how and when the violations were corrected. Please be aware any information submitted by you is legal documentation. If it is determined the information provided in the letter is not true, this may be considered falsification of information. If sufficient information is not received by the due date, a follow-up visit will be conducted. Mail or email the information to: Megan Brown, Child Care Consultant PO BOX 3187 Greenville, NC 27836 Megan.Brown@dhhs.nc.gov If you email the compliance letter, it must be sent from the email address registered with the DCDEE (this serves as your signature) and the following information must be included: name, position, facility name, and facility ID number. An example is: Jane Doe, Administrator AAA Child Care ID # 12345678 Technical assistance was provided on the following: Staff Records: The health and safety of children requires that information regarding each staff working with the children should be kept and available when needed. Staff records consist of various documentation to include emergency contact information. A Staff Medical Report and TB Screening/Test is due for new employees by their first day of work and not be older than 12 months to ensure they are physically, mentally, and emotionally well enough to care for children in a busy, rigorous environment. We discussed that when a staff member is no longer employed with the center, they need to complete new employee documentation if they are rehired to the center. Use the current Staff and Training Worksheet to help you verify that all required forms are on file. Placing each form in the same order as the worksheet makes it even quicker and easier to review files and update the worksheet. CPR/First Aid: Knowing what to do in an emergency medical situation can mean the difference between life or death. Being trained in CPR and first aid can be invaluable when someone is in serious medical distress. Therefore, it is so important that all staff working directly with children have current CPR and First Aid Certification. Staff have 90 days from the day of hire to complete the required training. Staff J. Corbett rehired on 2/12/24 did not have CPR and First Aid training on file. This is a repeat violation from the annual compliance visit on 3/5/24. We discussed that repeat violations may lead to the issuance of an administrative action. Aquatic Policy: The circumstances surrounding drownings and water related injuries of young children suggest that staffing requirements and environmental modifications may reduce the risk of this type of injury. An aquatic policy is required that addresses hazards, supervision, discipline, and emergencies. The field trip activities include trips to Greenville Outdoor Aquatic Center, you supplied signed documents from parents of the aquatic center’s policy waiver. You stated that the facility did not have a current aquatic policy, but you had the facilities old policy available. I reviewed the aquatic policy and requested updates based on the child care rules. You begin working on updating this policy during today’s visit. Once you have the updated policy review with staff and supply parents with a copy of the new policy prior to attending any schedule activity days at the aquatic center. Emergency Drills: Fire drills are required to be conducted at least monthly to ensure that the operator and children are aware of what actions to take in the event of a life-threatening emergency. It is important that you use the pull station that is installed in your facility as the source of notification. You stated that you are certain the drills were completed, but you did not document the drill and were unable to supply additional documentation. Set a reminder once a month to conduct your fire drills. A safe indoor and outdoor environment was not provided for the children with damaged items and equipment that were accessible to the children. It is important that the outdoor area is checked daily, and proper upkeep is conducted to ensure the environment is safe for use. Mulch was observed to be three inches or less under all stationary climbers and swings. We discussed that the playground inspections for May and June noted that mulch failed inspection and you stated that you were working on ordering more. Broken equipment was found in each outdoor space including a swing, riding toy, and portable climber with slide. During the daily playground check, remove or repair broken equipment. While children were playing on the preschool playground, the back gate was left open. We discussed that after maintenance cuts the grass, the door needs to be closed so that the children cannot run out. Storage of Hazardous Items: Intentional planning of the environment ensures a safe environment has been created which prevents and reduces injuries to young children. Check first aid kits before placing them in classrooms and vehicles and remove items that you cannot use with children. You stated that you were unaware that these items needed to be removed and would remove them immediately. Check vehicles before field trips to ensure that hazardous materials are removed before transporting. Review storage of hazardous materials with staff and designated areas for storage. Medication: Administering medication requires skill, knowledge and careful attention to detail. Parents/guardians and prescribing health professionals must give a caregiver/teacher written authorization to administer medication to the child. Authorization forms should include specifics on how and when to administer the medication. Caregivers/teachers must be diligent in their adherence to the medication administration policy and procedures to prevent any inadvertent medication errors, which may be harmful to the child. Emergency Medication are not required to be locked but must be inaccessible to children (stored above five feet).There is always a risk that a child may have a negative reaction to a medication, and children should be monitored for serious side effects that may require an emergency response. Additional Comments: We discussed over the counter medications required for medical action plans. I provided you with a medication flyer.
