You, Katrina Wray, Owner, assisted me with the visit. The Secretary of State website was checked prior to the visit on July 16, 2025, and your business, Berryland Club House CDC, Inc., was active and current. If any changes to the corporation need to be made or you decide to sell your business, then you must notify me, your consultant, at least thirty days prior to any changes occurring. The license cannot be bought, sold, subleased, transferred to another person or location, or inherited. Currently this center operates with a temporary license issued on February 17, 2025, with the following restrictions: First and Second Shift. You currently do not have any children enrolled on second shift. Children were observed during indoor free play, teacher-directed activities, infant feeding, supervised tummy time, and nap/rest time. The last monthly fire drill was completed on July 7, 2025, at 10:10 am. You completed the EPR Plan March 25, 2025. A shelter-in-place drill was conducted on June 4, 2025, at 11am. The last monthly playground inspection was completed on July 7, 2025. The last sanitation inspection was completed on March 7, 2025, and you received a superior classification and two (2) demerits.

On playground #3, used by infants and toddlers, the Red Little Tykes "Horse Rocker" was cracked at the rear and had sharp, jagged edges. .0601(d) 871 Center staff did not comply with the safe sleep policy. The Infant/Toddler Safe Sleep Policy posted in space #1b contained the following information: "We use Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) approved cribs or other approved sleep spaces for infants, Each infant has his or her own crib or sleep space." At 12:11pm, one (1) infant, five months of age was observed sleeping on their stomach and on a blanket that was covering the vinyl mat on the tile floor in space #1b. 10A NCAC 09 .0606(a) 1048 All staff did not successfully complete certification in First Aid appropriate to the age of children in care. Verification of staff completion of First Aid training from an approved training organization was not in the staff file.

Your policy stated that “We use Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) approved cribs or other approved sleep spaces for infants. Each infant has his or her own crib or sleep space.” Based on the information in your Infant/Toddler Safe Sleep Policy, each infant will be placed in their own crib or sleep space-an infant sleeping on a blanket on the floor does not follow your safe sleep policy. I suggested that you review your safe sleep policy with all staff and remind them that infants are not permitted to fall asleep on a blanket that is covering the vinyl mat on the tile floor. CPR and First Aid Two staff had CPR and First Aid Certification that expired on April 30, 2025. I suggested that you create a checklist for time sensitive training/required training with expiration dates and schedule staff to receive the training prior to its’ expiration date. You stated that you have two employees opening the facility and at least two employees that close the facility daily, and the two staff with CPR and First Aid Certification that has expired do not open or close the facility by themselves. You contacted your CPR and First Aid trainer and scheduled the two employees, a lead teacher and the cook, to complete the certification on Friday, July 18, 2025. Broken Equipment Materials, toys, and/or equipment must be removed immediately from the indoor and/or outdoor environment. I suggested that you have staff conduct daily checks for broken equipment, toys and/or materials and remove any broken items from the play areas. You corrected this violation when you removed the red Little Tykes rocking horse from playground #3 that was cracked and had sharp edges and discarded the item in the trash. I received your application for a rated license on June 9, 2025. Based on today's review of the previous owner’s rated license points, you have the following points: Program Standards - 6 points Staff Education – 6 Points Quality Point - 1 point for meeting the following: Staff Benefits Package, and Infrastructure of Parent Involvement. For a total of thirteen points for a five-star rated license. You must maintain compliance with enhanced space, and enhanced ratios or a violation will be cited once the rated license is issued.

You, Katrina Wray, Owner, assisted me with the visit. The Secretary of State website was checked prior to the visit on July 16, 2025, and your business, Berryland Club House CDC, Inc., was active and current. If any changes to the corporation need to be made or you decide to sell your business, then you must notify me, your consultant, at least thirty days prior to any changes occurring. The license cannot be bought, sold, subleased, transferred to another person or location, or inherited. Currently this center operates with a temporary license issued on February 17, 2025, with the following restrictions: First and Second Shift. You currently do not have any children enrolled on second shift. Children were observed during indoor free play, teacher-directed activities, infant feeding, supervised tummy time, and nap/rest time. The last monthly fire drill was completed on July 7, 2025, at 10:10 am. You completed the EPR Plan March 25, 2025. A shelter-in-place drill was conducted on June 4, 2025, at 11am.

Your policy stated that “We use Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) approved cribs or other approved sleep spaces for infants. Each infant has his or her own crib or sleep space.” Based on the information in your Infant/Toddler Safe Sleep Policy, each infant will be placed in their own crib or sleep space-an infant sleeping on a blanket on the floor does not follow your safe sleep policy. I suggested that you review your safe sleep policy with all staff and remind them that infants are not permitted to fall asleep on a blanket that is covering the vinyl mat on the tile floor. CPR and First Aid Two staff had CPR and First Aid Certification that expired on April 30, 2025. I suggested that you create a checklist for time sensitive training/required training with expiration dates and schedule staff to receive the training prior to its’ expiration date. You stated that you have two employees opening the facility and at least two employees that close the facility daily, and the two staff with CPR and First Aid Certification that has expired do not open or close the facility by themselves. You contacted your CPR and First Aid trainer and scheduled the two employees, a lead teacher and the cook, to complete the certification on Friday, July 18, 2025. Broken Equipment Materials, toys, and/or equipment must be removed immediately from the indoor and/or outdoor environment. I suggested that you have staff conduct daily checks for broken equipment, toys and/or materials and remove any broken items from the play areas. You corrected this violation when you removed the red Little Tykes rocking horse from playground #3 that was cracked and had sharp edges and discarded the item in the trash.

You have submitted your operational and personnel policies for review and have been approved. You said that you plan to assume the points and star rating from the previous owner under the hold harmless state that is currently in effect. I discussed with you that programs with less than a three-star license will not be eligible to receive subsidy funding. The following violations were observed today. Violation Number Comment Rule 541 The written feeding plan did not include the child's name, parent signature, and/or was not dated when received by the center.

In space #2b, the nonabsorbent cover on the mattress of two cribs labeled #1 and #4, were ripped on the bottom side that touched the base of the crib. 15A NCAC 18A .2821(a) 852 Incident reports were not completed each time a child was injured, it did not include all the information required in rule, it was not signed by the parent and/or it was not maintained in the child's file.

Safe Sleep Practices One infant, three months of age with an enrollment date of May 6, 2025, did not have an acknowledgement on file that the ITS/SIDS Policy was reviewed with the parent/guardian prior to the infant’s first day of attendance. I suggested that you create enrollment packets for new children and review all required forms with parents/guardians prior to the child’s first day of attending your facility. You corrected this violation by reviewing the policy with the parents during departure and placing a copy of the acknowledgement in the child’s file. Visual Checks I suggested that you review the Infant/Toddler Safe Sleep Policy with all staff caring for infants to ensure that staff place infants on their backs for sleeping and document the correct position when they initially place the infant in the crib for sleeping. Infants must be placed on their back initially for sleeping and then assume an alternate sleep position.

You have submitted your operational and personnel policies for review and have been approved. You said that you plan to assume the points and star rating from the previous owner under the hold harmless state that is currently in effect. I discussed with you that programs with less than a three-star license will not be eligible to receive subsidy funding. The following violations were observed today. Violation Number Comment Rule 541 The written feeding plan did not include the child's name, parent signature, and/or was not dated when received by the center.

In space #1a, the nonabsorbent cover on the mattress in one crib under the cubbies was ripped on the bottom side that touched the base of the crib. In space #2b, the nonabsorbent cover on the mattress of two cribs labeled #1 and #4, were ripped on the bottom side that touched the base of the crib. 15A NCAC 18A .2821(a) 852 Incident reports were not completed each time a child was injured, it did not include all the information required in rule, it was not signed by the parent and/or it was not maintained in the child's file.

In space #1b, the visual sleep check on file for review for May 28, 2025, documented the initial position that one infant, three months of age was placed in the crib for sleeping was on their side at 8:30am. At 10am, on May 28, 2025, the visual sleep check on file for review documented the initial position for one infant, four months of age was placed on their side in the crib for sleeping. 10A NCAC 09 .0606(a) 893 A copy of the safe sleep policy was not given to and/or explained to the parent of each child on or before the first day the infant attended the center. One infant, three months of age with an enrollment date of May 6, 2025, did not have a signed acknowledgement on file for review that the safe sleep policy was explained to the parent/guardian on or before the first day the infant attended the facility. 10A NCAC 09 .0606(c) Technical assistance was provided on the following: Sanitation In space #1a and #1b, the nonabsorbent cover on three mattresses were ripped on the bottom side of the mattress and touched the base of the crib.

Safe Sleep Practices One infant, three months of age with an enrollment date of May 6, 2025, did not have an acknowledgement on file that the ITS/SIDS Policy was reviewed with the parent/guardian prior to the infant’s first day of attendance. I suggested that you create enrollment packets for new children and review all required forms with parents/guardians prior to the child’s first day of attending your facility. You corrected this violation by reviewing the policy with the parents during departure and placing a copy of the acknowledgement in the child’s file. Visual Checks I suggested that you review the Infant/Toddler Safe Sleep Policy with all staff caring for infants to ensure that staff place infants on their backs for sleeping and document the correct position when they initially place the infant in the crib for sleeping. Infants must be placed on their back initially for sleeping and then assume an alternate sleep position. Written Feeding Plans One infant, three months of age had a written feeding plan posted that was not signed by the parent or dated when the plan was received by the facility. I suggested that you review all forms and documents during the enrollment process to ensure that all forms are completed accurately. You corrected this violation by requesting the parent sign the written feeding plan during departure and document today’s date. Incident Reports I suggested that you review the rule requirements with staff to ensure that incident reports are completed and all the required information is documented on the report form, including the name of the person completing the report, date, time, and by whom the parent/guardian was notified of the incident, and signature of the person completing the report.

The blue foam material was observed on five of the six cribs in space #1a and one of the cribs in space #1b. The foam material was accessible to five infants in attendance in space #1a. We discussed the teeth marks in the foam and choking hazards for children under three years of age. In spaces where children under three years of age are enrolled, I suggested that you have staff conduct daily safety checks to ensure items made of foam are stored at least five feet from the floor surface or removed from the space. You corrected this violation by removing the foam material from the cribs in space #1a and #1b. Fire Exits In space #1a, the white glider rocker was blocking the direct exit to the outside which was a fire exit.

One lead teacher with a hire date of March 20, 2025, did not have a medical report on file. 10A NCAC 09 .0701(a) Technical assistance was provided on the following: Foam Rubber In the spaces where children under three years of age are enrolled/present, items made of foam must be stored at least five feet from the floor surface. Blue foam “wall protectors” were around the bottom of the crib legs where the wheels are inserted into the crib in space #1a and space #1b. The blue foam material was observed on five of the six cribs in space #1a and one of the cribs in space #1b. The foam material was accessible to five infants in attendance in space #1a. We discussed the teeth marks in the foam and choking hazards for children under three years of age. In spaces where children under three years of age are enrolled, I suggested that you have staff conduct daily safety checks to ensure items made of foam are stored at least five feet from the floor surface or removed from the space. You corrected this violation by removing the foam material from the cribs in space #1a and #1b. Fire Exits In space #1a, the white glider rocker was blocking the direct exit to the outside which was a fire exit. I suggested that staff rearrange their classrooms to ensure that emergency exits/fire exits are not blocked. You corrected this violation by moving the additional crib that was not in use in space #1a and placed it back in space #2b and moved the glider rocker to the right of the emergency exit. Fire Drills Monthly fire drills must be conducted, and the drill log must be completed with the requirements in child care rule .0302(d)(5). I suggested that you document the fire drill log at the time of the drill with all the required information. We discussed contacting customer service for instructions and guidance with how to use the fire alarm system. You stated that you attempted a fire drill on March 20, 2025, but you were unable to disarm the system with the directions that were provided to you by the previous owner. Staff Medical Report One staff member was hired on March 20, 2025, and did not have a medical report on file. The staff member obtained a copy of the medical assessment that was completed for the school system; however, the information documented on the medical assessment did not meet the requirements in child care rule .0701(a), and the statement signed by the health care professional did not indicate that the person was emotionally and physically fit to care for children. I suggested that you provide new staff with a blank copy of the Staff Medical Report during the interview/hiring process and use the Staff File Checklist as a guide for the receipt of time sensitive documents. Consultation was provided on the following: • You will need to link the current lead in water test result to the current license number. The previous owner completed the test on April 24, 2024; however, you will need to contact RTI, “clean water for us kids,” and update the license number and name of your facility. • You will need to complete the surveys for the lead in paint and asbestos hazards if the previous owner did not complete these tasks. Reminders: • Lead in water testing must be completed every three years. Emergency Preparedness and Response Plan: You have completed and uploaded your Emergency Preparedness and Response Plan on March 25, 2025. You have reviewed the plan with all staff. Reminders: Any observed violations cited during visits will negatively affect the center's Compliance History Score. Your program must maintain a compliance score of at least 75% as required by G.S. 110-90 (4)(c). Your temporary license will end after August 17, 2025. Stay updated with changes and new rule updates by visiting the DCDEE website at: https://ncchildcare.ncdhhs.gov Health and Safety Training: Health and Safety Training must be completed within one year of employment for new staff and every five years for staff that have already completed the training.
