The allegations are as follows: There is a concern that a child was handled roughly. Enrollment: Space #5 Ten children three years of age enrolled: nine children three years of age present. Staff: L. Jordan and K. Brown B. Peterson, administrative assistant and D. Harris- Mackey, Parent Consultant, assisted me with today’s visit. Staff/child ratio, group size, supervision, use of licensed space, space capacity, and license restrictions were monitored. Children were observed sitting at child sized tables finishing lunch, handwashing, completing bathroom routines and resting on linen cover cots. Staff assisted children with handwashing and bathroom routines. Based on the information provided regarding concerns that a child was handled roughly, I observed video recordings of classroom space #5 from November 24, 2025. A self-report was received from your facility on December 9, 2025. Staff assigned to classroom space #5 were interviewed along with office staff. In the video recordings the staff member and child are observed standing in front of the bathroom doorway in classroom space #5. The staff member’s body language indicates that the staff member was speaking to the child while gesturing towards the bathroom three times. The staff member then steps toward the child placing a hand on the child’s back, below the neck, between the child’s shoulders and pushed the child toward the bathroom. The child takes a couple of steps then falls to the floor. Based on collateral reports and observations the allegation is confirmed. Violation Number Comment Rule 904 A child was handled in a rough way, including shaking, pushing, shoving, pinching, slapping, biting, kicking, or spanking. On November 24, 2025 a staff member pushed a child three years of age in the back in classroom space #5. .1803(a)(1) 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.

An example is: Jane Doe, Administrator AAA Child Care ID # 12345678 Technical Assistance was providing on the following: Positive Guidance: 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. Discipline is an ongoing process to help children develop inner control so they can manage their own behavior in a socially approved manner. Train staff on using positive redirection techniques.

When frequent and proper hand hygiene practices are incorporated into a child care center’s curriculum, there is a decrease in the incidence of acute respiratory tract diseases. We discussed hand washing during today’s visit. NCID: Did you know that if you do not login on any DCDEE platforms (e.g., Moodle, WORKS, CBC) for a period of 12 months, your account will be archived?
