Rationale for Reasonable Suspicion of Program Violation:
The Department of Children and Families suspended this child care provider from the Wisconsin Shares program due to a combination of red flags signifying Shares violations. These were identified through data and in person visits.
As of mid September, 2009, 73% of Shares authorizations of the provider were children of employees. At the time, the provider had 63 Shares authorizations, 46 of whom were children of employees.
During an in-person visit by Department of Children and Family Staff on September 24, 12 children were present. Provider was not able to produce attendance records for final week in August.
In a letter from August 14, 2009, the Department of Children and Families cited a significant number of serious licensing violations. The facility was cited for not having a procedure to ensure that the number, names and whereabouts of children in care are known to assigned child care workers at all times, a citation that been made twice previously.
In the same letter, the licensee was cited for not maintaining a written record on each child enrolled and making that record available to the licensing representative on request.
