Plan of Correction: During the transition to rest time, one teacher was completing a diaper change while the other was cleaning up after lunch. The children were moving to their mats for nap. A child was repeatedly reminded by the teacher at the changing table to lie down. After finishing the diaper change and washing her hands, the teacher immediately went to assist the child who was jumping. Both teachers
have since been retrained on active supervision and naptime procedures to ensure children are consistently monitored during transitions.
