Violations
3Staff 1, who was alone and responsible for supervising the two-year old classroom, did not intervene or redirect 2 children who were running around the classroom while pushing a wooden toy car that was intended for use in block play. The way that child 1 was using the car caused her to fall and sustain an injury that resulted in bleeding around her mouth requiring medical treatment.
Staff 1, who was alone and responsible for supervising the two-year old classroom, stated she was not aware, nor did she see, child 1 and child 2 running around the perimeter of the classroom while pushing wooden cars from a standing position or that child 1 had fallen, until she heard child 1 crying. Staff 1 had her back to the children and was cleaning up the home living area of the classroom when the car that child 1 was pushing suddenly stopped causing child 1 to fall forward and begin to cry. Child 1 sustained an injury to the mouth that later required medical attention.
