You, Geri Ward, Lead Teacher, assisted me with the visit. Currently this center operates with a temporary license issued on August 22, 2024, with the following restrictions: Daytime care only. During this second Temporary Time Period visit, the classroom was monitored as well as the playground, materials, equipment and required posted items for meeting all minimum licensing requirements. The last monthly fire drill was completed on November 18, 2024, at 1:30 pm. The last monthly playground inspection was completed on October 11, 2024. A sample of three children’s files were reviewed. One substitute staff file was reviewed. A menu was posted and dated for breakfast, lunch, and afternoon snack, and all food listed met the nutritional requirements. The daily schedule was posted. I discussed with you that you will not be eligible to receive subsidy funding after your temporary license expires if you do not achieve at least a three-star rated license. Your temporary license will end after February 22, 2025. An extension of time is not given, and your rated license points will be processed with the current points you have earned. We reviewed and discussed Program Standard points, Staff Education points and Quality point options. Another review of these points will be conducted during your third Temporary Time Period Visit. All staff including the administrator must establish a DCDEE WORKS account and have their education evaluations completed by Workforce by December 31, 2024. Documentation from Workforce on the results of the education evaluation must be on file for review for each staff member. The following violation was observed and corrected during the visit. Violation Number Comment Rule 840 All corrosive agents, pesticides, bleaches, detergents, cleansers, polishes, any product which is under pressure in an aerosol dispenser, and any substance which may be hazardous to a child if ingested, inhaled, or handled were not stored in a locked room or cabinet. In space #1, two (2) cans of Rustoleum Spray Paint were stored in an unlocked cabinet to the right of the refrigerator, and one (1) aerosol can of Equate Whipped Topping was stored in the unlocked refrigerator. .2820(b) Technical assistance was provided on the following: Hazardous Products/Aerosol I suggested that you conduct daily safety checks to ensure that all hazardous products are stored appropriately. The cabinet that the aerosol spray paint was stored had a “magnetic” lock but the lock was not secure. We discussed contacting maintenance to adjust the magnetic mechanism to ensure that it is working properly. As discussed, aerosols including whipped topping in an aerosol spray can must be stored in a locked refrigerator or locked cabinet. You corrected this violation by removing the two cans of Rustoleum Spray Paint and placing them in the locked cabinet with a key above the cubbies and removing the aerosol spray can of Equate Whipped Topping and placing it in the trash. Consultation was provided on the following. • Staff will need to create a DCDEE WORKS account and submit official transcripts so their education can be evaluated. Please assist staff with creating and submitting their education in the Workforce Unit in the Raleigh office. On the DCDEE website choose the Provider tab, DCDEE WORKS, and review the DCDEE WORKS Training Simulator Step-by-Step Instructions. Let me know if you have any questions or problems getting this task completed. You and the teacher have submitted education for evaluation. • If a new administrator is hired, please have them create a DCDEE Works account and submit the forms for their education/Principal’s License to be evaluated. I will need a copy of the Preservice Requirements for Administrator in Child Care completed and returned to me. I provided you with a copy of the form. • As stated in G.S. 110-90.2 & .2703(r) child care operators are to notify the Division of any new child care providers working who were hired or moved into the child care facility within five business days. The process of notifying the Division has changed and is now captured in ABCMS. This change has been in effect since February 2024. Effective immediately, you will need to obtain a Business NCID and complete Provider Portal training in Moodle at https://www.dcdee.moodle.nc.gov/course/view.php?id=119. No action is needed on your part if you have completed the reference training and are currently using the ABCMS Provider Portal to update information regarding new hires or residents. Once the training has been completed and access has been given, you must verify your facility roster to ensure current staff are noted on the roster. This information should be updated in ABCMS in an ongoing basis as staff members are hired and when their employment is terminated. This satisfies the requirement to notify the Division of new child care providers working who were hired or moved into the child care facility within five business days. The compliance of this rule will be monitored during your next visit. Please note, the hard copy of the Change of Information form will no longer be needed or accepted. Should you need assistance please contact the Criminal Background Check Unit at (919) 814-8401 and someone will assist you. The following is general information for you to review to prepare for the Environment Rating Scale Assessment. ECERS-R A variety of different types of blocks such as wooden unit blocks, soft unit blocks, cardboard blocks, and homemade blocks with enough blocks in each set for at least three children to build a structure should be provided. The block center should be large enough for three children to build a substantial structure without interfering with one each other’s play. Art projects should allow individual expression by children. Copied, cookie cutter type art projects do not offer children an opportunity for individual expression. Allow children to choose the art media of their choice and provide a variety of materials. The following are suggestions for art materials: markers, chalk, colored pencils, paper, crayons, dry erase markers, finger paint, tape, glue, stickers, small pieces of paper, play dough, clay, hole punchers, stencils, stamps, and scissors. Display in the classroom should be primarily children’s work and not teacher or store-bought display. Children’s art should be posted on their eye level. Avoid long periods of waiting during transitions such as bathroom time or from one activity to another. Develop ideas and strategies to reduce waiting time for children. Teachers can sing songs and do finger plays with the children who are waiting. If children wait more than three minutes without activity, then you will be marked down on the Environment Rating Scale Assessment score. Items such as puzzles and games that are missing pieces should be removed from the classroom and replaced. The classroom should have at least two books per child that are age appropriate for the children in the group. I suggested that books that portray violence be removed. A variety of books that portray real animal pictures, families, disabilities, and different cultures should be added to each classroom. Remove any books that are worn, torn or missing pages. I suggested that you have or purchase hats; boys dress shirts, ties, jerseys and dress coats from a consignment shop, yard sale or dollar store to enhance the dramatic play center. Other items that enhance dramatic play are telephone books, cooking aprons, restaurant menus, calculators, cash registers, cookbooks, and baby doll accessories. Add pictures, books, puzzles, block play people, baby dolls, music, play food and dress-up clothes that represent different cultures. Add pictures, puzzles and block play people that represent people of all ages and disabilities. Review your daily schedule and free play allotted times. Free play times need to be listed separate from all other activities such as hand washing, preparing to go home etc. All centers/materials should be accessible to children during free play. Water must be available to children throughout the day. Always have a pitcher of water and cups for children available. Tables must be cleaned with soapy water then wiped dry. Then spray table with the sanitizing solution and let it sit for at least two minutes before wiping dry. Follow this procedure before and after eating. Make sure no children are near the table when spraying the sanitizing solution. The sinks must be disinfected between changes of use. The staff should spray the sink with the disinfectant spray and allow the disinfectant to stay for at least two minutes before turning on the water and using the sink. Children must wash their hands upon arrival, before and after eating, before and after sand and water play, after toileting, after outdoor play, after handling messy art materials such as paint, glue, and playdough and after touching nose, mouth, floor, trashcan, and anything else that re-contaminates the hands. Staff should follow proper handwashing procedures and wash their hands as required. Remove mouthed items from play immediately and sanitize before allowing other children to play with item. You must interact with children in relation to their play with materials. At least two instances must be observed. Math/number - One instance must be observed during routine care as well as during free play of using math/number. Staff members should sit with children during meals and when possible, during snacks. Child sized tables and chairs must be correctly sized for at least 75% of children to receive credit. Gross motor equipment must be sturdy, age appropriate and stimulate many skills such as climbing, balancing, hanging by arms, sliding, riding tricycles and bicycles. You must have a variety of portable materials in good repair accessible to play individual and group gross motor games that stimulate many skills. Active play must occur indoors when they cannot not go outdoors due to precipitating weather. Make sure to always follow the weather watch chart to determine if weather is permitting for outdoor activities. Greetings and departure - Staff must acknowledge and personally greet children during arrival and departure. Staff and child communication - Staff and children’s conversations must be frequent. Language should be generally used by staff to exchange information with children and for social interaction. Most of the language observed during the assessment should be personal conversation and talking about topics of mutual interest rather than all directive language. Children should be asked why, how, what if questions that require longer and more complex answers. Children must be free to decide not to participate in any activity they choose. For example, if the teacher does a group time activity, the teacher cannot require all children to participate. Children should be given alternate activities. Since you want to have the Environment Rating Scale completed, I recommended that you visit www.ncrlap.org for supplemental materials for preparing for the Environment Rating Scale Assessments. Additional notes to the Early Childhood Environment Rating Scale Revised Edition can be obtained on this website. NCRLAP also offers Webinar training for staff. I also recommended that you register staff now for the upcoming Webinar training listed on the ncrlap.org website. You previously completed the forms and the Environment Rating Scale Assessment was ordered. You stated that your four-week window begins on December 16, 2024. I will forward you a copy of the assessment once I received it. Reminders: Any observed violations cited during visits will negatively affect the center's Compliance History Score.
