The center's compliance history was reviewed with the operator. The program’s compliance history was ninety-seven percent as of 6/9/25. The NC Secretary of State website was reviewed on 6/9/25 and New Beginning Christian Childcare Center, LLC was listed as current- active. We reviewed your facility contact information listed on the Division of Child Development and Early Education (DCDEE) website and all information is current. Contact me if you need to make any changes to your contact information, e.g., phone numbers, mailing address. A walk-through of the facility was completed today, all indoor and outdoor areas were monitored. I observed children in the indoor learning environment. I observed children engaged in free play with age-appropriate materials. Staff substitute files were reviewed. A fire inspection was conducted at the facility on 3/31/25 and your facility was approved for day time care only. Later the children were observed transitioning to the outdoor learning space.

An example is: Jane Doe, Administrator AAA Child Care ID # 12345678 Technical Assistance with violations documented: Transportation: Motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death in children two to fourteen years of age in the United States. It is necessary for the safety of children to require that the caregiver/teacher comply with requirements governing the transportation of children in care, in the absence of the parent/guardian. Each child transported must be have on file emergency contact information along with a photograph of each child. This is helpful in identifying children in the event of an emergency/accident. One preschool age child did not have a photograph attached to their emergency information. Vehicle Maintenance: Children should be cared for and transported in safe environments. Maintaining the exterior of the vehicle is important to the safety of children. Today in the vehicle used to transport children the headlight on the front passenger side was missing. Additional Comments: Today we discussed Staff/Child Ratios and classroom arrangements. Your facility currently operates with enhanced ratios minus one. We also discussed the QRIS modernization, visit the page on the Division’s website under the “What’s New” tab to review pathways 1, 2, and 3. Information about a survey was sent out on May 27th. The purpose of the survey is to learn more about your interest in the new pathway options so that we can plan for training, technical assistance and resources that will assist you in achieving your Two- through Five- Star Rated License. Completing the survey will assist us in planning for a gradual transition. Complete the survey at the following link: https://northchealth.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_3rxLoX0PcJUR5Qy NCRLAP Outreach Assessment- An Outreach Assessment offered by NCRLAP is a fantastic opportunity for programs to get a head start on understanding the Environment Rating Scales (ECERS-3, ITERS-3, SACERS-U, and FCCERS-3) without the stress of it impacting their Star Rated License. Think of it as a friendly, no-pressure practice run that helps you pinpoint your program’s strengths and areas for improvement. Here’s how it works: 1. Initial Phone Call: We kick things off with a conversation to understand your program’s needs and set up the assessment(s). 2. The Assessment: Our assessors will complete assessments during the scheduled window using the new rating scales. 3. Follow-Up Call: After all assessments are completed, an assessor will call you to set up a convenient time for the follow up conversation to discuss the results with you, providing valuable feedback and actionable insights. These assessments are a great way to familiarize your staff with the rating scales, ensuring everyone knows what to expect during an official assessment. An FAQ about Outreach Assessments was provided for you during the visit.
