Name of Operation: THE CHILDREN'S COURTYARD Facility ID: 47000315 Consultant: ALECIA PASCHAL Operation Type: Center Case Number: 0225-098L Visit Date: 2/12/2025 Number Present: 136 Completed Date: 2/12/2025 Age: From 0 To 5 Total Minutes: 275 Time In: 12:05 PM Time Out: 04:40 PM Time In: Time Out: List to Use: Center Type Of Visit: Complaint Visit Announced/Unannounced: Unannounced The purpose of today’s unannounced visit was to obtain information regarding alleged violations of child care requirements. Morgan Micken, interim director, and Vickie Bullock, interim assistant director, assisted me with today’s visit. The allegation are as follows: 1. There is a concern of inadequate supervision. A child was left in the classroom unsupervised for an unknown amount of time. 2. There is a concern related to sanitation and health. 3. There is a concern of an unsafe outdoor environment. Staff/child ratio, group size, supervision, use of licensed space, space capacity, license restrictions, and the outdoor environment were monitored. The license and emergency care plan were posted. Fire drills, medication administration, and storage of hazardous products were also monitored. The Center Space, Capacity, Staff/child Ratio was completed today during the complaint investigation case #: 0125-324L. There were 136 children ranging in age from three-months-old to five-years-old present during today’s visit. I interviewed the administrators and teachers regarding protocol for maintaining supervision requirements at all times of the day. During the interview process with five (5) teachers, it was determined that teachers use the face to name tracking tool daily. Teachers document the time each child arrives, the child’s age, and when the child leaves. They also document who picked up the child. The tool is designed to ensure that each child is always in the care of a teacher. The teachers’ names and their hours of arrival and departure are also located on the tool. During my review of the face to name tracking tool, I observed that the tracking tool completed on the day that the child was left in the classroom was incomplete. The teacher did not write down what time the child left her care and entered another teacher’s care. The teacher returned to the classroom, after she signed out the other children, to look for the missing child. He was not in the classroom. She called for him and he did not answer. She thought that he had been picked up and she left. Approximately 4 minutes went by, and another parent entered the classroom. She saw the missing child exit the bathroom. She brought the child to the reception desk administrator located in the entrance lobby. The child remained in the care and supervision of the reception desk administrator until his mother picked him up from the administrator. The administrator called V. Bullock, Interim Assistant Director, to tell her about the child being left alone in the bathroom. V. Bullock called the mother to let her know what had happened. V. Bullock was able to determine the amount of time that the child was left unsupervised by comparing the time that the other children were signed into the other classroom and the time that the parent brought the child up front. The difference was four (4) minutes. The allegation that a child was left in the classroom unsupervised was substantiated. I observed proper sanitation protocols in all the classrooms today. Children were observed washing hands and eating lunch. Diapers were checked every hour in the infant and toddler room and every two hours in the two-year-old age group and changed as needed. The bathrooms were clean and in good repair. The center requests a complete change of clothes for each child. This ensures that they can be changed or independently change themselves when they soil their clothing. The allegation that sanitation and health requirements were not being met was unsubstantiated. I observed the outdoor area and the playground safety checklist. There were no violations of child care requirements observed around the outdoor environment. The allegation that the environment was unsafe was unsubstantiated. One violation was documented: Violation Number Comment Rule 303 Children were not adequately supervised at all times. A child was left alone in the classroom bathroom of space #14 for approximately 4 minutes. .1801(a)(1-5) 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 violation(s) documented may impact the compliance history score. Due to the nature of the violation cited during today’s visit, a follow-up visit is required. For the latest information on childcare rules and regulations, please visit the Division of Child Development and Early Education's website at https://ncchildcare.ncdhhs.gov/ At the completion of the visit, the Visit Summary was reviewed with you and signed. The Visit Summary was completed, and a copy was left with you.
