3270.113(a) Supervised at all times

“In the infant room, where two staff and five infants were present, the following lapses in supervision were observed on video footage recorded on 2/3/26. Two infants occupied cribs, one occupied a motion swing, and Child #1 and another infant were in a gated play area by themselves. Staff person #1 was observed across this play area, leaning up against the counter preoccupied with their phone while Staff person #2 rocked an infant and had their back turned to the play area. Child #1 can be seen pushing themself up and leaning on a wooden activity cube. The infant then took their left hand off of the wooden activity cube, loses their balance and fell, with their face/mouth hitting the solid wiring on the top of the toy, resulting in their head jolting backwards resulting in an injury to the child's frenulum. Due to Staff person #2's positioning with their back turned and Staff person#1's preoccupation with their mobile phone, it is determined that neither staff were able to see, direct or assess Child #1, and inadequate supervision contributed to the injury of the child.”
