You, Wanda Council, the owner, assisted me with the visit. Your program currently operates with a 4 star rated license issued November 18, 2022. Restrictions include: Daytime and overnight care; maximum of 5 preschool children at any time; serves no more than 2 infants under age 1. The license was posted, and the restrictions were in compliance. A walk-through of the facility was completed today, all indoor and outdoor areas were monitored. I observed children during outdoor free play activities. I found supervision and staff/child ratios to be in compliance. The caregivers were interacting and meeting the developmental needs of each of the children. No new staff files were reviewed due to there being no new employees. Violation Number Comment Rule 1847 A child care operator did not notify the Division of any new child care providers, as defined in G.S. 110-90.2(a)(2), who were hired or moved into the child care facility within five business days. The FCCH did not have roster in the ABCMS system. G.S. 110-90.2 & .2703(r) 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. The violation documented must be corrected immediately. On or before June 30, 2025, I must receive a written, dated, and signed compliance letter that describes accurately and in detail how and when the violations were corrected. Please be aware that any information submitted by you is considered legal documentation. If it is determined the information provided in the letter is not true, this may be considered falsification of information. If sufficient information is not received by the due date, a follow-up visit will be conducted.

An example is: Jane Doe, Administrator AAA Child Care ID # 12345678 Technical Assistance: Fun Art Activities & STEM Support Art fosters creativity and emotional development. Here are engaging ideas: Process Art: Focus on exploration rather than perfecting a final product (e.g., splatter painting, mixed-media collages). Recycled Art Projects: Use household items for eco-friendly creations (cardboard sculptures, bottle-cap mosaics). Story-Based Art: Read a book and let children illustrate their interpretation. Collaborative Murals: Encourage teamwork by painting a group mural reflecting a common theme. STEM Activities to Spark Innovation Integrating STEM builds problem-solving and critical thinking skills. Try these interactive options: Simple Engineering Challenges: Build structures with marshmallows and toothpicks or design paper bridges. Science Experiments: Conduct hands-on learning with baking soda volcanoes or homemade slime. Technology Exploration: Introduce coding games or basic robotics with kits like LEGO Mindstorms or Code.org activities. Math-Inspired Games: Create math scavenger hunts or measurement-based cooking challenges. At the completion of the visit, this visit summary was printed, reviewed, and a copy was left with you.
