    746.1003(1) · Director Responsibilities - Operate in Compliance

    The director is struggling to maintain compliance and ensuring that the operation is ran in a safe manner. The director is often away from the operation and is unaware of the concerns observed. Children are seen opening doors and running out of classrooms and the caregivers are having a hard time with classroom management. The operation is starting to have repeated citations and I have discussed my concerns with the director multiple times and no progress has been made.

The two children did have a tablet and when I asked them were there teacher was the nine year old stated my mom works here and thats why I am here. When I approached the parent who is also the cook she stated the two children should have been sitting in the classroom with the school age teacher. I also observed an eleven year old child sitting in a dark office laying on a couch. When I asked the child what was wrong, he stated he was not feeling good. There was no teacher supervising the child. At 3:26 pm a caregiver brought the child out of the office and took them to the classroom.

    746.1205(a)(4) · Supervision ensures each child?s safety, well-being, including physical proximity and auditory or visual awareness of each child?s on going activity

    While waiting for someone to answer the front door I observed the owner/director running passed the front door and back into the hallway were the classrooms were. I thought the director was coming to open the door for me but instead ran into a hallway. When another caregiver finally opened the door I conducted my walk through and asked the director why she ran passed the door. She initial stated that was not her and then said she went to the front desk to get something and immediately came back to the children. During the time that she ran to her desk, no other caregiver stepped in to be with the children.
