The last Lock Down/ Shelter-in-Place was on October 23, 2025. The last Playground Inspection was conducted on January 6, 2026. During today's visit, I completed a full assessment of Applicable Child Care Requirements; license posted, restrictions maintained, staff/child ratio and adequate approved space. Program Records and Criminal Background Checks were also monitored. Staff and Children’s files were monitored as well as Emergency Drills, Medication, and Playground Inspections. Today we monitored three (3) children’s files. During today’s visit the following violations were cited and technical assistance was offered to maintain compliance. Violation Number Comment Rule 1044 Prior to the expiration date of the qualification letter, the child care provider did not complete and submit required forms to complete a criminal background check (a qualification letter is valid for a maximum of five years for the date of issuance). Ms. O. Slemp's qualification letter expired on 2/1/26. G.S. 110-90.2(b) & .2703(n)&(o) 1811 Shelter-in-place or lockdown drills were not practiced every three months and/or drill record was incomplete. The last practice was conducted on 10/23/25. .0604(u);.0302(d)(8) The above violations must be corrected immediately. A Corrective Action Letter must be drafted with the name of your facility, the facility identification number, and your signature. The letter must be received by my office on, or before 5:00 pm February 25, 2026. The letter should include: Each item’s number of noncompliance cited. Describe how and when the violations were corrected. Please include accompanying documentation of compliance. The letter can be emailed to rena.mccaffrey@dhhs.nc.gov. If a letter of compliance is not received by my office on, or before 5:00 pm February 25, 2026, a return visit may be conducted to ensure the violations cited have been corrected or addressed. Additional violation may be documented if each violation has not been properly corrected or otherwise addressed. Technical Assistance: Today we discussed that lock down or shelter in place are required to be completed every 3 months for the children’s safety. All renewal of qualification letters must be completed prior to their expiration date. Mrs. O. Slemp qualification letter expired on February 1, 2026. Mrs. Slemp did go to get her qualifying letter renewed but for some reason it has not yet been recertified. Note: Criminal background checks can get backed up or may require more time for an out of state background check to take place. For this reason, all criminal background checks should be completed far enough in advance that does not expire. When I checked online the application had been submitted and the teacher did call criminal records to see if there was any progress on her application. They told her because she was from another state that the process was taking longer. Currently criminal records have extended her qualification letter until 2/19/26 to allow more time to process the check. Please be aware that if the 2/19/26 comes around and she has not received clearance from the state she may have to be out until her qualification letter comes back passed. REMINDERS: A. Camper qualification letter will need to be renewed before 6/2/26. The following First aid and CPR training courses will need to be renewed before 4/18/26. Marla, Autumn, Andrea, and Jessica Autumn needs to complete Administering Medication in Moodle for Health and Safety classes.
