COMPLIANCE HISTORY Prior to today’s visit your compliance history was 93% over an eighteen (18) month period. FACILITY PROFILE I reviewed the facility contact and owner information with you, W. Holloman. You confirmed the information currently listed in the system remains correct. CHILDREN RECORDS I monitored ten (10) percent or more of children’s records and two (2) violations were documented. A child enrolled on 9/3/25 has a medical report dated 10/29/25. The same child has an immunization report dated 10/29/25 and a child enrolled on 10/20/25 has a report dated 5/5/26. The children are noted on the “Children’s Records” form. Both the medical report and immunization report must be completed and on file prior to or within thirty (30) days of a child’s enrollment. This ensures that they are medical clear to participate in typical early education activities. You informed me that you have been requesting a children's medical report annually and then discarding the previous one. This means that the medical report submitted initially at enrollment was discarded. Going forward you know that the initial medical report must remain in the file. STAFF RECORDS I monitored ten (10) percent of staff records and no violations were observed. remainder. Continue to ensure that staff update and sign/date their health questionnaires and emergency information forms annually. MEDICATION & PROGRAM RECORDS A violation was observed related to medication. I observed a container of Coppertone sunscreen in space #5 that expired in 2024. There was also a container of Triple Paste ointment in the storage closet that was not returned to parents within 72 hours of the permission form expiration on 6/25/25. Staff should review the medication monthly to ensure that any expired containers are returned home, and forms can be updated prior to expiration. If preferable, keep a list of the medications with expiration dates for the containers or authorization in a prominent place to remind staff. There was no shelter-in-place or lock-down drill documented since 1/14/26. One of these drills must be completed every three (3) months to ensure current and new staff and children know the program’s procedures during this type of emergency. A fire drill has not been documented since 3/6/26 and these are required to be completed and documented monthly for the same reason. ABCMS PROVIDER PORTAL While you have completed the required ABCMS provider portal training in MOODLE you have not set up the facility’s roster in the system. After completing the training there are steps providers must take to ensure an account is set up in the ABCMS system for their program. Providers must use their business NCID to create and use the ABCMS provider portal. I emailed you guidance on how the steps to create an ABCMS provider portal account for the program. Current staff must log into their own ABCMS account and link themselves to the program. You are able to link new employees. However, information on connecting staff is also included in the guidance emailed to you today. TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE & REMINDERS Technical assistance was given regarding creating a weekly snack menu to post for parent, staff and visitor review. Lunch is supplied for each child by their parent/s. Snack is sent weekly by a different enrolled family. You informed that the parent assigned for each week receives an email with snack suggestions and brings the snack items in on Mondays. A menu should be created so families are able to know, prior to the day it is served, what is being offered for their child’s snack. You, or staff, must check medication permission forms prior to submission to ensure parents list the exact name of the ointment, lotion, etc. Using “Sunscreen-Any” is too vague. They must also note an amount on the form and not leave it blank. Technical assistance also discussed related to monitoring all metal playground equipment such as the blue balance beam, yellow metal school bus and large blue play equipment for signs of chipping or peeling paint. Once signs appear these items should be repainted or otherwise repaired. Items discussed as technical assistance may warrant a violation if observed out of compliance. Child care licensing requirements are established to ensure a safe and healthy child care environment. It is your responsibility to maintain compliance with all applicable laws and rules. The best way to do so is to periodically review the child care laws and rules. The current rule book dated July 1, 2025, is available at the DCDEE website https://ncchildcare.ncdhhs.gov/.

Providers must use their business NCID to create and use the ABCMS provider portal. I emailed you guidance on how the steps to create an ABCMS provider portal account for the program. Current staff must log into their own ABCMS account and link themselves to the program. You are able to link new employees. However, information on connecting staff is also included in the guidance emailed to you today. TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE & REMINDERS Technical assistance was given regarding creating a weekly snack menu to post for parent, staff and visitor review. Lunch is supplied for each child by their parent/s. Snack is sent weekly by a different enrolled family. You informed that the parent assigned for each week receives an email with snack suggestions and brings the snack items in on Mondays. A menu should be created so families are able to know, prior to the day it is served, what is being offered for their child’s snack. You, or staff, must check medication permission forms prior to submission to ensure parents list the exact name of the ointment, lotion, etc. Using “Sunscreen-Any” is too vague. They must also note an amount on the form and not leave it blank. Technical assistance also discussed related to monitoring all metal playground equipment such as the blue balance beam, yellow metal school bus and large blue play equipment for signs of chipping or peeling paint. Once signs appear these items should be repainted or otherwise repaired. Items discussed as technical assistance may warrant a violation if observed out of compliance. Child care licensing requirements are established to ensure a safe and healthy child care environment. It is your responsibility to maintain compliance with all applicable laws and rules. The best way to do so is to periodically review the child care laws and rules. The current rule book dated July 1, 2025, is available at the DCDEE website https://ncchildcare.ncdhhs.gov/. There are also modules reviewing the new Child Care Rules available on Moodle, which can be found on the Division website. I recommend you frequently click the “What’s New” tab to stay informed of all updates on the DCDEE website. Please feel free to contact me at (984) 867-7089 or email at Felicia.faison@dhhs.nc.gov for questions and assistance. If needed my mailing address is PO Box 61161, Raleigh NC 27661. You may also contact Susan Fuller, Licensing Supervisor at (252) 373-9809. 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

Name of Operation: LAKESIDE PRESCHOOL Facility ID: 64000473 Consultant: FELICIA FAISON Operation Type: Center Case Number: Visit Date: 2/26/2026 Number Present: 41 Completed Date: 2/26/2026 Age: From 2 To 5 Total Minutes: 215 Time In: 10:00 AM Time Out: 01:35 PM Time In: Time Out: List to Use: Center Type Of Visit: Routine Unannounced Announced/Unannounced: Unannounced The purpose of my unannounced visit today was to monitor compliance with child care requirements applicable to a routine unannounced visit. R. Holloman, administrator, and W. Holloman, assistant administrator, were present and assisted with the visit. Due to active precipitation the outdoor play area will be monitored at the annual compliance visit. Currently, this center operates with a Notice of Compliance issued August 21, 2020. The posted sanitation inspection was completed September 17, 2025 earning a “Superior” rating. The last fire inspection was completed February 24, 2025 and the facility was approved for daytime care only. Children were observed playing in activity centers, group time, teacher directed activities and snack. Observed interactions were nurturing in nature between teachers and children. The following violations of child care requirements were documented. Violation Number Comment Rule 849 Leftover medicines were not returned to the parent after the course of treatment was completed, after authorization was withdrawn or after authorization had expired and/or medication was not discarded within 72 hours of completion of treatment or withdrawal of authorization. There were two (2) containers of Aquaphor healing ointment that expired on 11/2021 and 3/2024. .0803(12) 1032 Child care providers and uncompensated providers who are not substitute providers or volunteers, including the director did not have a medical report on file prior to employment that was signed by a health care professional and/ or the medical report was older than 12 months. There is no medical report on file for the staff member hired on 12/1/25. 10A NCAC 09 .0701(a) 1882 Medication authorization, giving the caregiver standing authorization did not meet the specifications in rule. There was a container of Aquaphor ointment that had expired medication authorization permission forms and a container of Triple Paste with no permission form available. .0803(6)(a-i); .0803(7)(a-g); .0803(8)(a-d) The violations documented above must be corrected immediately. A signed and dated letter of compliance can be mailed or emailed to me and must be received by March 12, 2026. If mailing, you must submit two (2) signed and dated copies. My mailing and email addresses are noted at the bottom. The letter of compliance must detail how the violation was corrected. Please be aware that any written information you submit regarding the correction of the violation is legal documentation. Therefore, it is important that all submitted information is accurate and truthful. If it is determined that submitted information was inaccurate or willfully falsified, an Administrative Action, including Revocation of the facility’s license could be issued. COMPLIANCE HISTORY Prior to today’s visit your compliance history was 93% over an eighteen (18) month period. STAFF/CHILD INTERACTION: I observed age-appropriate materials available for use in all classrooms. Current schedules, specific to each age group, were posted in the majority of classrooms. I also observed a variety of age-appropriate activities in each classroom. The group of three (3) year olds were seated at the table making different colored slime with assistance from their teacher. They picked out their own color and were able to identify the colors as they told me as I observed. The teacher talked with them about the structure and form of the slime, such as stickiness, how it stretches, how it makes sounds and molding it into different shapes. The teachers with the group of two (2) year olds read the book “Guess how much I love you” to the group. Afterward she let them hug the child sized stuffed animal of the Big Nutbrown Hare and Little Nut Brown Hare, but they had to be gentle. The group of five (5) year olds were engaged in free choice center play. R. Holloman sat at the table with child playing the Montessori mystery bag game. They took turns reaching into the bag to feel one of the various small objects describe how it feels out loud, guess what it is and then take the item out to identify it. R. Holloman described an object as flat on two (2) sides and circular because it could roll. She guessed it was a cylinder and it was when she removed it. All of these activities stimulated various domains such as cognitive, language, fine motor skills, and social-emotional skills. STAFF RECORDS W. Holloman confirmed two (2) new staff members have been hired since the last monitoring visit. I reviewed both records for applicable information and noted them on the staff and training worksheet, a copy was left with you. A violation was documented related to staff member hired 12/1/15 not having a medical report on file for review. She stated that it had been completed but was left at home. This report must be on file to verify completion within the required timeframe. The staff hired on 2/6/26 must complete CPR and First Aid training, with an approved trainer, no later than 5/6/26. She has completed the online portion of a blended training and must complete the skills test in person. MEDICATION I observed two (2) containers of Aquaphor healing ointment that expired 11/2021 and 3/2024. Both expired Aquaphor containers have medication administration permission for topical ointments that expired 2/26/25 and 12/1/25. There was also a container of Triple Paste for a child that does not have a medication administration permission form. Therefore, two (2) violations were documented. TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE & REMINDERS: Continue to ensure that you are documenting staff review of the program’s EPR plan at the time of hire and annually after that. It may be done in roster form or sign off sheet placed in each file, which ever works best for the program. The program has new turf covering the ground of the outdoor play area, including beneath play equipment. I requested the ASTM documentation to verify the turf is approved for the fall height applicable to the play area as resilient surfacing. You informed me that the church handled the purchase and you would have to get it from them. The person related to installing the turf will send, via email, the necessary paperwork for review and verification. Items discussed as technical assistance may warrant a violation if observed out of compliance. ABCMS-CRMINAL BACKGROUND CHECK PORTAL The Division sent out several emails since 2024 regarding every administrator/owner completing the ABCMS Moodle training. You will need to use your business NCID. If you have not completed the ABCMS Moodle training, please complete it immediately. Once you have completed the training you will receive an access code to complete the Roster set-up, please wait 48 hours prior to using the access code (it takes about 2 days before you can use it). 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. If needed the training may be found at the following website: https://www.dcdee.moodle.nc.gov/course/view.php?id=119. 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. The Clean Water for Carolina Kids program expanded to the Clean Classrooms for Carolina Kids program. This is a legislatively mandated effort to address lead and asbestos hazards in North Carolina public schools, licensed child care centers, and licensed family child care homes. Rules 10A NCAC 41C .1001 through .1007 require all programs to be free of lead and asbestos hazards. RTI is coordinating all the lead in water, paint and asbestos testing and remediation. Currently operating child care facilities are required to test for lead in the paint and asbestos once unless the consultant notes a concern during a visit and refers the program to environmental health. After reviewing the website, I noted that you have completed your second round of lead water testing as of December 2024. However, the facility is listed as “Survey Review by RTI” on the website. I recommend you log into your facility account at https://www.cleanwaterforuskids.org/en/carolina/ to ensure that no additional information needs to be submitted or contact RTI regarding the testing status. Child care licensing requirements are established to ensure a safe and healthy child care environment. It is your responsibility to maintain compliance with all applicable laws and rules.

Upon arrival E. Greer, teacher, was present and informed of the reason for the visit. W. Holloman, assistant administrator, arrived after I arrived and assisted. I was unable to monitor the playground due to active precipitation. The playground will be monitored at the next visit but continue to inspect for violations and safety hazards. This center operates with a GS 110-106 Notice of Compliance issued August 21, 2020. The posted sanitation inspection was completed April 15, 2025 earning a “Superior” rating. The last fire inspection was completed February 24, 2025 and the facility was approved for daytime care only. I observed children playing in activity centers and group time reviewing numbers and the alphabet. Interactions between children and teachers were nurturing in nature. The following violations of child care requirements were documented. Violation Number Comment Rule 805 Fire drills were not practiced monthly and/or the drill record was incomplete. No fire drill was completed or documented for May of this year. .0604(t); .0302(d)(5) 849 Leftover medicines were not returned to the parent after the course of treatment was completed, after authorization was withdrawn or after authorization had expired and/or medication was not discarded within 72 hours of completion of treatment or withdrawal of authorization. There was an expired medication permission form for Hyland Cough and Mucus. There were three (3) expired containers of Aquaphor diaper cream, a container of Blue Lizard sunscreen, and Honest Healing ointment that were expired on-site. .0803(12) 1824 The trained staff did not review the EPR Plan annually or when information in the plan changed to ensure all information was current. The center's EPR plan was not reviewed annually. .0607(e) The violations documented above must be corrected immediately. A signed and dated letter of compliance can be mailed or emailed to me and must be received by June 19, 2025. If mailing, you must submit two (2) signed and dated copies. My mailing and email addresses are noted at the bottom. The letter of compliance must detail how you corrected the violation. Please be aware any written information you submit regarding the correction of the violation is legal documentation. Therefore, it is important that all submitted information is accurate and truthful. If it is determined that submitted information was inaccurate or willfully falsified, an Administrative Action, including Revocation of the facility’s license could be issued. COMPLIANCE HISTORY Prior to today’s visit your compliance history was 94% over an eighteen (18) month period. FACILITY PROFILE I reviewed the facility contact and owner information with you, W. Holloman. You confirmed the information currently listed in the system remains correct. CHILDREN RECORDS I monitored ten (10) percent or more of children’s records and no violations were observed. STAFF RECORDS I monitored all new staff records and ten (10) percent of the remainder. No violations were documented. MEDICATION & PROGRAM RECORDS A violation was observed related to medication and authorization forms. I observed three (3) expired containers of Aquaphor diaper cream, an expired Blue Lizard Sunscreen (10/24) and an expired Honest head-to-toe ointment (10/24). The medication authorization for the Hyland Cough and Mucus medicine expired March 2025. The expired creams and lotions must be returned to parents or discarded as soon as possible. The authorization form for the Hyland medicine must be updated or returned to the parents as well. Staff should review the medication monthly to ensure that any expired containers are returned home, and forms can be updated prior to expiration. If preferable, keep a list of the medications with expiration dates for the containers or authorization in a prominent place to remind staff. Most of the current authorization forms a set to expire this month and in July. The Emergency Preparedness and Response plan was not revised or reviewed annually as required. An annual review of the plan ensures that information is updated as it changes if staff forget throughout the year. The EPR plan is accessed by logging into the risk management portal at https://rmp.nc.gov/portal/# with the program’s business NCID. Even if no changes are required then the plan must at least be reviewed every year. Then print either the cover page which notes the date of review/revision or page 28 of the plan which notes not only when it was reviewed or revised by who logged in to do so. You revised and printed the updated the EPR plan during the visit. TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE & REMINDERS Technical assistance given regarding ensuring that all cubbies are labeled with each child’s name. As children dis enroll or leave for the summer their names should be removed from cubbies and the name of the new children used. Cubbies must be labeled to ensure that children and families put belongings in the right space. This also helps keep a sanitary environment so there is no contamination should someone be sick. Not to mention it can help children learn name and letter recognition. While there is no form for requesting religious exemption for immunizations in North Carolina documentation must be submitted and maintained in the child’s record. To claim a religious exemption, the parent/guardian must write a statement of their religious objection to immunization, including the name and date of birth of the person for whom the exemption is being requested. This statement would then be submitted to you in place of an immunization record. A separate statement must be written for each child if siblings are enrolled. These statements do not need to be notarized, signed by a religious leader, or prepared by an attorney. Items discussed as technical assistance may result in a violation if observed to be out of compliance at future visits. I recommend that, if stored in a class, push pins be stored out of reach of children. The Clean Water for Carolina Kids program expanded to the Clean Classrooms for Carolina Kids program. This is a legislatively mandated effort to address lead and asbestos hazards in North Carolina public schools, licensed child care centers, and licensed family child care homes. Participation allows facilities to meet all rule requirements for identified lead and asbestos hazards, as required by law. Rules 10A NCAC 41C .1001 through .1007 require all programs to be free of lead and asbestos hazards. RTI is coordinating all the lead in water, paint and asbestos testing and remediation. There are webinars that child care providers can watch to get instructions. After reviewing the website, I noted that this program completed the lead water testing in December 2024 and is not due again until December 2027. The program has started enrollment for asbestos testing and the enrollment for lead paint testing is listed as “Survey review by RTI.” I encourage you to check the website and your email frequently in case additional information is required to complete the process.

Staff hired 2/6/23 did not complete the annual emergency information until 6/18/24. .0701(a) 1811 Shelter-in-place or lockdown drills were not practiced every three months and/or drill record was incomplete. There was no shelter-in-place or lockdown drill documented between May 2023 through January 2024. .0604(u);.0302(d)(8) The violations documented above must be corrected immediately. A signed and dated letter of compliance can be mailed or emailed to me and must be received by July 3, 2024. If mailing, you must submit two (2) signed and dated copies. My mailing and email addresses are noted at the bottom. The letter of compliance must detail how you corrected the violation. Please be aware any written information you submit regarding the correction of the violation is legal documentation. Therefore, it is important that all submitted information is accurate and truthful. If it is determined that submitted information was inaccurate or willfully falsified, an Administrative Action, including Revocation of the facility’s license could be issued. COMPLIANCE HISTORY Prior to today’s visit your compliance history was 92% over an eighteen (18) month period. CHILDREN RECORDS I monitored ten (10) percent or more of children’s records they were found to be in compliance with current Child Care Rules. STAFF RECORDS I reviewed ten (10) percent or more of staff records including the one (1) new staff person. A violation was documented regarding staff review of the Emergency Preparedness and Response (EPR) plan. Trained staff is required to review the EPR plan with all staff annually and keep documentation of the review in their file or with other EPR documents. This documentation should include the date or review and staff signature. The staff person hired 2/6/23 did not complete a health questionnaire or update their annual emergency information until 6/18/24. Both forms are required to be updated annually in case of changes to the staff persons providers, or emergency contacts. PROGRAM RECORDS While monitoring the fire drill log, I noted that a fire drill was not completed for December 2023. I also observed that a shelter-in-place or lockdown drill was completed May 2023 and not again until January 2024. I recommend either posting the log as a visual reminder or setting reminders on an online calendar or cell phone. MEDICATION While monitoring storage of medication I observed expired containers of Nystatin (12/2023), A+D ointment (2/2024) and Aquaphor (3/2024). All expired medication must either disposed of or returned to parents. I recommend staff make a list of expiration dates of medication for children in their care. This could help since the permission forms are not kept in each classroom. I would also ensure that parents note a specific amount of cream like “pea” or “quarter” sized in place of “enough to cover area.” I also observed that a container of Bourdeaux butt paste, Aquaphor and Triple paste were stored with other medication but did not have a medication authorization form giving permission to use the items. These should either be returned home with children or parents fill out the required form. TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE & REMINDERS: Technical assistance given regarding making sure parents document health provider name, hospital preference as well as the phone numbers for both on enrollment applications. The rubber mulch should be tilled and redistributed at the slide exits and under the swings. These areas tend have mulch depleted faster as children’s feet compact or kick the mulch away. I would measure the mulch depth, especially in high use areas monthly, and replenish accordingly. A reminder was given regarding double checking that all aerosol products are placed in locked storage after use. The Clean Water for Carolina Kids program is expanding to the Clean Classrooms for Carolina Kids program. This is a legislatively mandated effort to address lead and asbestos hazards in North Carolina public schools, licensed child care centers, and licensed family child care homes. Participation allows facilities to meet all rule requirements for identified lead and asbestos hazards, as required by law. Rules 10A NCAC 41C .1001 through .1007 require all programs to be free of lead and asbestos hazards. RTI is coordinating all the lead in water, paint and asbestos testing and remediation. There are webinars that child care providers can watch to get instructions. Go to https://www.cleanwaterforuskids.org/en/carolina/ for more information. Currently operating child care facilities are required to test for lead in paint and asbestos once unless the consultant notes a concern during a visit and refers the program to environmental health. All existing licensed programs should have completed the application summary for their program regarding lead paint and asbestos by November 1, 2024. Child care licensing requirements are established to ensure a safe and healthy child care environment. It is your responsibility to maintain compliance with all applicable laws and rules. The best way to do so is to periodically review the child care laws and rules. The current rule book dated January 1, 2024, is available at the DCDEE website https://ncchildcare.ncdhhs.gov/. There are also modules reviewing the new Child Care Rules available on Moodle, which can be found on the Division website.

COMPLIANCE HISTORY & FACILITY PROFILE Prior to today’s visit your compliance history was 88% over an eighteen (18) month period. I reviewed the facility contact and owner information with you, H. Wendt. You confirmed the information currently listed in the system remains correct. CHILDREN RECORDS I monitored ten (10) percent or more of children’s records and two violations were documented. The child enrolled 3/28/23 does not have a health assessment or immunization record on file. All enrolled children are required to have both forms within thirty (30) days of enrollment to ensure that are medically cleared for typical early education activities. PROGRAM RECORDS This program uses the bright wheel app to document attendance as well as arrival and departure times. I reviewed the last month of arrival/departure times and observed several days where one or more children did have their departure times documented. OUTDOOR ENVIRONMENT While monitoring the playground I observed that the outdoor storage room was unlocked. The storage room housed paint thinner and three (3) cans of aerosol ACE Lacquer. These items must be kept in locked storage when not in use to ensure the children cannot access them and use them in a manor that results in injury. Please ensure the door is locked after it is used. TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE: Technical assistance given regarding making sure parents document health provider name, hospital preference as well as the phone numbers for both on enrollment applications. We also discussed technical assistance regarding storage of any type of cleaning/disinfecting wipe, such as Lysol wipes, in locked storage when not in use. Wipes such as wet wipes at the facility must be stored at least five (5) above the floor so it is not accessible. No violation was warranted as the spaces housing these items are not in use for the summer. When and/or if the facility enrolls children that require pull-ups or diapers ensure that the bathroom used to dispose of these soiled items has a plastic lined, lidded trashcan. REMINDERS Child care licensing requirements are established to ensure a safe and healthy child care environment. It is your responsibility to maintain compliance with all applicable laws and rules. The best way to do so is to periodically review the child care laws and rules. The current rule book dated July 1, 2023, is available at the DCDEE website https://ncchildcare.ncdhhs.gov/. There are also modules reviewing the new Child Care Rules available on Moodle, which can be found on the Division website.
