High · Mar 28, 2025 · Investigation (report)
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
Based on the documentation and information gathered during the investigation, there is sufficient evidence to support that a child sustained an injury. However, due to the lack of staff supervision in the gym during naptime, it is unclear how the injury occurred.
In plain English: Each caregiver must know which children they are responsible for, how many there are, and each child's name and age. The caregiver must stay close enough to see or hear what each child is doing, as the situation calls for, and be able to step in when needed. Official rule text
