Sandra Woriax, director assisted me with the visit. Your program currently operates with a Three- star license effective August 2, 2022. Your program is currently earning (5) points in the education component, (2) points in the program standards component (the program met enhanced space) and 1 quality point (the child care administrator has at least 10 years of documented child care administrative work experience in a licensed program that can be verified by the Division). The center's compliance history was reviewed with the operator. The program’s compliance history was 95% as of today. Your sanitation and fire inspections remain current since your last visit. The last fire inspection is dated 2/18/25. The last sanitation inspection is dated 11/1/24. The NC Secretary of State website was reviewed today and KIDDIE WORLD NURSERY AND PLAYSCHOOL, INC. was listed as current- active. The license was posted, and the restrictions were in compliance. A walk-through of the facility was completed today, all indoor and outdoor areas were monitored. I observed children playing in their indoor and outdoor play areas. Supervision and staff/child ratios were found to be in compliance. The caregivers were interacting and meeting the developmental needs for each of the children. Rated license requirements were reviewed to ensure compliance was maintained with the current program and education components as well as the quality point. No new staff members have been hired. Lunch consisted of bread, string beans, chicken, noodles, fruit cocktail and milk. The following violations were documented: Violation Number Comment Rule 319 Staff/child ratios applicable to a classroom, were not posted in each classroom. In space #3, the staff/child ratios were not posted. This was corrected by posting the staff/child ratios applicable to the classroom. .0713(a)(10), (c) & (f)(3); .2818(e) 716 All stationary equipment, more than 18 inches high, was not installed over protective surfacing. On the playground, the large climbing structure has grass growing through most of the surfacing. .0605(j) 858 Plastic bags, materials that could be torn apart and toy parts small enough to be swallowed were accessible to children under three years of age. In space #1a, a plastic bag was located in a cubby. This was corrected by removing the plastic bag. .0604(q) 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. Any violations documented may impact the compliance history score. The violations documented must be corrected immediately. On or before 8/6/25, I must receive a written, dated, and signed compliance letter that describes accurately and in detail how and when the violations were corrected. Please be aware any information submitted by you is considered legal documentation. If it is determined the information provided in the letter is not true, this may be considered falsification of information. If sufficient information is not received by the due date, a follow-up visit may be completed. Email or mail the information to: deanna.abraham@dhhs.nc.gov or Deanna Abraham, Child Care Consultant PO Box 265 Raeford, NC 28376 If you email the compliance letter, it must be sent from the email address on file with DCDEE (this serves as your signature) and the following information must be included: name, position, facility name, and facility ID number. An example is: Jane Doe, Administrator AAA Child Care ID # 12345678 Children were observed playing with tabletop toys and playing on the playground equipment. Technical assistance was given on the following: ABCMS Portal 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) 814-6401 and someone will assist you. The above information is for FCCH and Centers. All providers, administrators, directors, teachers, residents, and anyone else that may come into contact with the children will need to be added to the portal. Make sure to have your ABCMS roster on file and ready for review. Violations are currently being cited if you have not added all personnel and/or family members to the roster. This includes yourself as well. You must add new people to the list within 5 days of hire or moving in. Here are a few tips: • When you complete your ABCMS Moodle training, you will fill out a form with your business NCID and wait for an email to provide you with access to your provider portal. • When you have access, you will provide a code to your employees so they can fill out an application. • They will be required to upload their license or other picture ID. You will see them on your roster and hire them or not. • Hiring them will generate your roster. • Let me know if I may be of further assistance. I will need to confirm that your roster is current when I make a visit. Playground I highly suggest tilling the surface under the outdoor climbing structure monthly. Add tilling to your monthly calendar as a part of your monthly to do list. FYI - Through collaborative efforts, the Division of Child Development and Early Education (DCDEE), and the North Carolina Child Care Health and Safety Resource Center, a program of the UNC Gillings School of Global Public Health, are excited to announce that the CCDF Health and Safety trainings are now available in the DCDEE Moodle learning platform.

If the operator fails to correct any documented violations within the established time period, the Division of Child Development and Early Education may deny, suspend, terminate, or revoke any permit to operate (10A NCAC 09 .2000). All information in this report has been reviewed with me today.I understand that it is my responsibility to maintaincompliance with applicable NC Child Care Requirements at all times

The following are some key points when supervising older preschool children during toileting routines. Direct Supervision - Always maintain direct supervision. This means being physically present and attentive to children’s needs. For older preschool children who request privacy, you can supervise by standing in hearing distance. Safety and Privacy - Supervise from the bathroom doorway to maintain oversight without infringing on the child’s privacy. This allows you to ensure the child’s safety while respecting their privacy. - It is best to allow children to use the restroom one at a time to protect each child’s privacy. Today I also left you information from the Child Advocacy Center. Their training on recognizing the signs of abuse will be very informative and beneficial to you and your staff.

This means being physically present and attentive to children’s needs. For older preschool children who request privacy, you can supervise by standing in hearing distance. Safety and Privacy - Supervise from the bathroom doorway to maintain oversight without infringing on the child’s privacy. This allows you to ensure the child’s safety while respecting their privacy. - It is best to allow children to use the restroom one at a time to protect each child’s privacy. Today I also left you information from the Child Advocacy Center. Their training on recognizing the signs of abuse will be very informative and beneficial to you and your staff. I highly suggest you take advantage of any training opportunities they can provide.
