Make sure to contact your Child Care Consultant, Nakita Bellamy, if you are no longer providing overnight care. All indoor areas used by the children were monitored. Due to inclement weather the outdoor playground areas were not monitored today. Monthly playground inspections were reviewed. I observed staff/child ratios, group size, capacity, use of space, and supervision.

You may email verification addressing the individual violation and how it was corrected. The compliance letter must be received by February 25, 2025. Miriam.Byrd@dhhs.nc.gov You are required to maintain compliance with all applicable child care rules and regulations at all times. NC GS 110- 90(4)(d) requires all child care facilities to maintain a compliance history score of at least 75% for the past 18 months or during the length of time the facility has operated, whichever is less. Failure to do so may result in the issuance of a provisional license or other administrative action. Child care licensing requirements were established to ensure a safe and healthy child care environment. Therefore, it is important for you to be knowledgeable of all the licensing requirements that apply to your type of program. It is your responsibility to maintain compliance with all the applicable laws and rules at all times. The best way for you to make sure that you are meeting all requirements is to periodically review the child care law and rules. I explained that you have access to the on-line version of the Child Care Rule Book, as well as a hard copy of the rules. I recommend that you visit the Division of Child Development's website (www.ncchildcare.nc.gov) on a regular basis to find out what's new in childcare. You could also find any needed Child Care forms by going on the web site and clicking on the "Provider" tab and then clicking on the "Provider Documents" tab. Reminders: Based on information obtained via Clean Water for Us Kids, the Lead-in-Water analysis has been completed and RTI has completed the survey for Lead-Based Paint and Asbestos testing. A few reminders were shared with you regarding completing the Staff and Training worksheet: 1. Make sure to put the expiration date of CPR and First Aid training instead of the issuance date. 2. The training date for the EPR training is the actual training for the staff member(s) that completed the required EPR training course. The Review date is when the EPR Plan was reviewed on an annual basis to the other staff. This review is completed by the staff member who took the EPR training course. 3. Make sure all items on the staff and training worksheet are completed. If there are any blanks it appears the information is not on file and could result in a violation. If a certain item doesn’t apply, you can put ‘N/A’. Moodle Helpful Hints When on the Moodle homepage, scroll down past the three square boxes to find directions to self-register for various training opportunities. If you do not access a training opportunity for 150 days, the training will be suspended. To regain access, email a request to set status to “active” including the name of the training course to dcdee_moodle_support@dhhs.nc.gov. Send any questions about DCDEE Moodle trainings to dcdee_moodle_support@dhhs.nc.gov. Tips for MY NCID Users 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? An archived account cannot be reinstated. You will need to create a new one and then email all platforms (e.g., Moodle, WORKS, CBC) to merge accounts. Pro Tip: Set your calendar to remind you every 6 months to login and out at https://myncid.nc.gov to keep your account activated and it will NOT be archived Rated License: The Governor signed Senate Bill 425 (now Session Law 2024-34), Health and Human Services Omnibus Bill, which includes the Quality Rating Improvement System (QRIS) Modifications recommended to the Legislature by the NC Child Care Commission to update QRIS and create additional pathways for licensed child care facilities to earn star rated licenses. The Child Care Commission is currently in the process of drafting proposed child care rule language to begin the rulemaking process for implementing the new requirements.
