Comments:
An investigation occurred on 11/02/2022 and 11/16/2022 in response to a self reported incident regarding behavioral guidance received on 11/1/2022. Based on staff and parent interview, children and staff record reviews, and observation, the preponderance of evidence supports a violation and the area of non-compliance is identified on the violation notice. If you have any questions you may contact me at jessica.willis@dss.virginia.gov or 571-352-1453.
Based on staff interview, behavioral guidance given by one staff was not constructive in nature, and age and stage appropriate. Evidence: 1.When discussing behavioral guidance provided by Staff #1 in the infant classroom, Staff #2 stated Staff #1 ?talks to them like they are big kids? 2.Staff #2 stated ?I do not care for how she verbally speaks to babies. She can be a little aggressive. Her voice was stern.? 3.Staff #3 stated Staff #1 would ?yell at them to stop instead of being proactive in the situation.?
Plan of Correction:
Additional training was provided and Staff #1 was required to repeat all employee trainings. Staff was also assigned to a different age group.
