2.8 (B), Handbook: The child care facility operators, employees, and volunteers must comply with written disciplinary and expulsion policies. Child care personnel did not comply with the facility's written disciplinary policy. Ratios/Discipline [SR] Comments: Complaint alleges that a teacher physically abused a one year old boy by cleaning the floor with his own body. FINDINGS: A complaint inspection was conducted on 3/6/2025 and a statement from the director was received. Per the director, the incident occurred on 2/21/2025. The parent of the child in question called her to notify her that the teacher wiped the floor with the child. The director then reviewed the footage from the classroom and observed the child spilling water on the floor with his sippy cut. The teacher approached him and took his water bottle away. As the child was standing up from a sitting position, the teacher grabs him, wipes the floor with his bottom and stands him up. The Director called the teacher into her office, showed her the video and terminated her employment at that time. The director then contacted the mom and informed her of the actions that were taken following the incident. This complaint is substantiated as the school's discipline policy was not followed by the teacher in this incident. FACILITY/STORAGE 10.
