Your program currently operates with a three-star license, issued November 7, 2019, earning 6 points in the education component, 1 point in the program standards component meeting minimum requirements and 1 quality point for restricting infant capacity to no more than two children under one year of age. The last annual compliance visit was conducted June 26, 2024. The center's compliance history was reviewed with the operator. The program’s compliance history was one hundred percent as of June 5, 2025. Children enrolled were participating in group play activities. I found supervision and interaction to be in compliance. Both the indoor and outdoor learning environments were inspected today. In addition, all program records to include criminal background checks, training certifications, emergency drills, transportation requirements, and all child care requirements were inspected. The following was cited during today’s inspection. Violation Number Comment Rule 1847 A child care operator did not notify the Division of any new child care providers, as defined in G.S. 110-90.2(a)(2), who were hired or moved into the child care facility within five business days. The operators roster is not up to date in the ABCMS Provider Portal. G.S. 110-90.2 & .2703(r) Child Care programs are expected to always achieve and maintain compliance 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 violation(s) documented may impact the compliance history score. The violation(s) documented must be corrected immediately. On or before June 19, 2025, 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 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 will be conducted. Mail or email the information to: Brandon Fry, Child Care Consultant, 80 Blake Blvd; PO Box 4441, Pinehurst, NC 28374, brandon.fry@dhhs.nc.gov If you email the compliance letter, it must be sent from the email address registered with the DCDEE (this serves as your signature) and the following information must be included: name, position, facility name, and facility ID number. An example is: Kim Baldwin, Operator, Ready Set Grow Day Care, ID # 19000091 Technical Assistance: 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 on 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. As a reminder you have until June 25, 2025 to complete all required on-going training hours. At the completion of the visit, this visit summary was printed, reviewed, and a copy was left with you. Contact me at brandon.fry@dhhs.nc.gov if you have questions. 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
