Provider Response: (Contact the State Licensing Office for more information.) 1. 7/24/26 - Children must be supervised at all times. Making sure clear views of cribs are facing the proper directions for teacher(s) view(s). 2. 11/17/26 - The school will have ELRC come to the school to help resolve and discuss any nap time arrangements. They will visit 3 times in person within 4 months. Leadership team will work will ELRC and document their arrangement tips and guidelines. 3. 11/17/26 - The directors started nap time checks. During these checks supervision checks in each classroom were documented. We also assessed and documented proper nap time cot / crib placements. We also documented the numbers of students in each classroom and the teachers in the room at the time. We have been doing these checks daily since 7/27/26 twice during nap time, in the 1:00 hour and the 2:00 hour. Starting on 8/13/26 the ages of the children in each classroom was added to the checklist. We will continue to do these checks daily and then phase to 3 times a week for the next three months. Our plan after the 3 months is to "spot check" classrooms at random during the nap time 1-3pm. In the beginning of this nap time check process we feel nap arrangements were made to ensue supervision of all children as well as the placement of mats being 2ft on 3 sides. Attached is our nap time log. Plan to maintain compliance: Children will be supervised at all times. The responsibility of supervision is assigned to each teacher at the beginning of each day! The directors will check on supervision in each classroom daily, during nap time and any time throughout the day. |
