The child care facility Rainbow Child Care and Learning Center located at 107 West Waddell Street Selma is located adjacent to a church that is going to be demolished and it was deemed by the Twon of Selma that it would be unsafe for the children to remain in care at the center during demolition, so you temporarily relocated to the Noble Street location. During the visit I monitored the following: • A working telephone was available. You have cell phones available at all times. You had a copy of the Emergency Medical Care Plan posted. • Fire extinguishers were on site and all of them had current tags where they had been serviced recently. All children are in classrooms with direct exits. • Toilets were available. • Safe drinking water was available. The facility is provided with water from the Town of Selma. • Handwashing accommodations were available and each sink and bathroom was supplied with soap and paper towels. • Outdoor activities- There is an outdoor play area for the children. You stated today that you have mobile toys to take outside • I observed developmentally appropriate toys and materials in each classroom. Activity plans were current and posted and daily schedules were also posted in each classroom. All required items were posted today. Due to the nature of the visit an enrollment worksheet was not completed. Enrollment information was as follows: There was a total of ten (10) children present as follows: 1 child less than one year of age 1 child who was one year of age 4 children who were 4 years of age 1 child who was 5 years of age 3 school age children. Staff files and children’s records are located in the temporary location. All staff members are the same. I reviewed the staff and training worksheet completed during the 3-3-16 annual compliance visit and observed that all required training was current for all staff members including full day CPR/first aid coverage, current criminal background qualification letters, and current ITS-SIDS. Each staff member had up-to-date emergency information and a health questionnaire. You stated that the projected timeframe for the repairs to be completed was August 5-17, however due to Hurricane Debby demolition did not begin on time therefore you will be occupying the temporary location for an additional week, through August 26, 2024. I informed you that you must not go beyond 30 days, or you will be required to obtain statements from the building, fire and sanitation inspectors that the area being used is free from hazards and safe for temporary occupancy. A temporary license will be issued for the temporary location upon receipt of the required documents. Violation Number Comment Rule 1756 Enhanced staff/child ratios and group sizes were not met. There were ten (10) children ages birth to twelve with one caregiver for a brief period of time. 10A NCAC 09 .2818 The temporary location is one large classroom, which you have divided for various ages by using tables and furniture. A staff/child ratio violation was documented today because as I entered the building today, there was one adult in the room with ten children ages birth to twelve years of age. Within a couple of minutes of my arrival, you entered from the kitchen and stated that you had just stepped out to get a lady and her son some food. A follow-up visit will be completed in the near future to monitor for compliance with staff/child ratios. Please contact me at 919-819-9302 or paula.davis@dhhs.nc.gov if I may be of assistance. 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).
