The Division of Child Development received notification on November 17, 2025. ALLEGATION: 1 Incomplete Activity Plans OBSERVATION: The Infant and Infant 2 classrooms were missing current and complete lesson/activity plans. The Infant classroom only had partial plans for July and September and none for August, October, or November. The Infant 2 classroom also lacked required plans. Failure to maintain and implement, age appropriate, and current activity plans is a violation. CONCLUSION: This allegation is Substantiated. ALLEGATION 2 Safe Sleep Practices OBSERVATION: During the walkthrough of the facility, there was no “Boppy” nor blankets observed in the cribs. However, an infant child was observed sleeping in a swing. I asked the teacher how long the child had been sleeping. After checking the reporting App, she stated that the child had been sleeping since 9:05 am. It was now 10:38 am, which equated to approximately 1.5 hours. This represents a clear violation of required safe sleep policies and procedures. CONCLUSION: This allegation is Substantiated. ALLEGATION: 3 Supervision OBSERVATION: During the walkthrough of the indoor and outdoor learning spaces, I observed staff using safe supervision practices. CONCLUSION: This allegation is Unsubstantiated. ALLEGATION: 4 There are concerns with staff/child ratio OBSERVATION: There were six classrooms open during the visit. Adequate ratio was maintained. Infants: 1/5, Infant II: 1/6, Toddlers: 2/11, Twos: 2/17, Threes and Fours: 1/10, Fours and Fives: 2/13. CONCLUSION: This allegation is Unsubstantiated. ALLEGATION: 5 Screentime OBSERVATION: There is a concern of children under three having access to the use of tablets. I did not observe in use by these age groups. Staff stated that tablets are sometimes used to play music. CONCLUSION: The allegation is Unsubstantiated ALLEGATION: 6 Meals and Nutrition OBSERVATION: CACFP-approved menus were observed posted. The provider stated that they rotate the menus throughout the month. CONCLUSION: This allegation is Unsubstantiated. ALLEGATION: 7 Sanitation Requirements OBSERVATION: There were concerns that the facility has experienced the presence of pests such as roaches and mice. I monitored the indoor facility, opened drawers in the kitchen. I did not see evidence for this concern. Further, a sanitation inspector, Mr. Cory, was present, conducting a sanitation visit. I conferred with him inquiring about his observation with this concern, he stated that he has not observed any concerns with pest in his inspections. The provider stated that they do have a pest control vendor which they use on a regular basis to maintain compliance with this requirement. Next, there were concerns of children’s faces not being cleaned throughout the day. During the visit I observed staff members washing children's hands, cleaning children’s faces and maintaining appropriate hygiene practices. CONCLUSION: This allegation is Unsubstantiated. ALLEGATION: 8 Diapering OBSERVATION: Documentation of diapering reviewed and noted on the tablets does not indicate non-compliance with this rule. CONCLUSION: This allegation is Unsubstantiated The following violations were observed, cited and technical assistance was offered. Violation Number Comment Rule 428 A current activity plan was not posted for each group of children for reference. Two infant classrooms did not have current activity plans. Infant 1 posted plans from July and September. Infant 2 did not have any plans available for veiwing. GS 110-91(12); .0508(a) 871 Center staff did not comply with the safe sleep policy.

Please be advised that other violations of child care requirements may be added if observed during that visit. You were provided with an opportunity to ask questions regarding child care requirements. We discussed each of the violations cited this date. TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE: The appropriate safe sleep practices require that infants be placed on their backs in a crib for sleeping. Swings, car seats, bouncy chairs, and similar equipment are not approved sleep environments. Facilities must provide age-appropriate planned activities and maintain written activity plans. The plans must be for the current week and posted in the classroom for reference for the teaching staff and available for parents’ review. All plans must contain activities which meet the child care requirements weekly. These include ones that are designed to stimulate emotional and social, health and physical, approaches to play and learning, language development and communication, and cognitive development for each group of children in care. The activities should allow for children to choose to participate with the whole group, part of group, or independent of the group. There should be time allotted for sand and water play and should include a daily gross motor activity which may occur indoors or outdoors. Thank you for your assistance during today’s visit.

Attendance was taken and observations made. The children were observed participating in resting, participating in teacher directed activities and routines.

Additional violations may be cited during that follow-up visit. You were provided with an opportunity to ask questions regarding child care requirements. TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE: We discussed that the toy dump truck could be brought to a state of “good repair”, i.e. by painting them, using products safe to children or they must be replaced. As the Summer heats up please be reminded to maintain a safe indoor and outdoor learning environments. Below are a few tips to remember: 1. Safety Checks & Maintenance Inspect equipment: Check for loose bolts, rust, splinters, or cracks on play structures, swings, and slides. 2. Surface check: Ensure mulch, rubber mats, or sand are evenly spread and thick enough to cushion falls. Fence & gate: Inspect for damage or sharp edges and make sure gates latch securely. Pest control: Check for bees/wasp nests, ant hills, or signs of other pests. 3. Sun Protection Shade structures: Install or check canopies, sails, or umbrellas over play areas and seating. Natural shade: Trim trees for safety but keep them healthy to provide extra sun coverage. -Sunscreen policy: Have a plan for applying sunscreen (with parent permission) and ensure staff follows it. 4. Hydration Station Water access: Ensure water is available with disposable cups. Ask staff and children to discard disposables properly. Encourage water breaks: Schedule regular hydration times during play. 5. Outdoor Activities & Toys Summer-time appropriate toys: Add water tables, sand toys, sports equipment, or "ride-ons". Rotate toys: Keep the environment fresh and engaging by rotating outdoor toys. Nature-based play: Include items like gardening tools, pots, or sensory bins with natural materials. 6. Cleanliness Sanitize outdoor toys regularly, especially anything children put in their mouths. Tidy up landscaping: Remove any debris, broken branches, or trash at minimum twice per day. 7. Safety from Heat Playtime schedule: Shift outdoor play to cooler times (morning or late afternoon). Cooling activities: Plan for cooling breaks with misting bottles, or popsicle breaks. Watch for signs of heat exhaustion in children and staff (lethargy, excessive sweating, etc.). 8. Communication Notify parents about changes in outdoor routines, sunscreen application, and clothing suggestions (hats, water shoes, etc.). ADDITIONAL INFORMATION OFF PREMISE ACTIVITIES: Occasionally, programs plan trips that do not require transporting by vehicle, but may facilitate a walk off of the facility's property. In these cases please remember to follow ALL off-premise activity requirements for child care. You have informed me that currently you do not have any school-age children enrolled. There is not a plan to enroll that age group this summer. With that decision your program has not planned, nor do you foresee planning any field trips for the summer. You expect your vehicles to be parked all summer. However, both vehicles are verified to have up-to-date registration and insurance and are ready to go in case of an emergency. Thank you for your assistance during today’s visit. If you have any questions or concerns, please call me at 336-894-0609 or e-mail me at anita.c.graham@dhhs.nc.gov.
