##### [Little Rascals Childcare Facility](/creche/little-rascals-childcare-facility-tralee.md), Tralee · Regulation 27 — Supervision

- 1. Appropriate supervision of children by sight or sound, was not ensured for a period of time in the Pre-school room. Shortly after two of the children from the Toddler 2 room entered the Pre-school room to use the sanitary facilities, one of these children closed the entrance door to the sanitary facility and both children remained inside, unsupervised for four minutes, until one of the children from the Pre-school room opened the door again. The adult in the Pre-school room was engaged in activities with the other children and did not appear to notice that the door had been closed. Not appropriately supervising children at all times may allow for an accident or incident to occur

- 1. The registered provider has committed to ensuring a staff member will supervise the children going to the bathroom. The practice being implemented is to wait close by to assess if the child needs assistance and the door will not be closed fully. The accident and incident policy has been reviewed by all staff. The registered provider has stated that supervision will be carried out during bathroom time, inclusive of for short intervals by sound once a relevant staff can talk with children who are out of sight while in the bathroom
