Staff interviewed acknowledged that they understand the procedure for reporting injuries to facility representatives, and parents. Staff stated that they feel supported by Facility Representatives when they need assistance with supervision and maintaining control and structure in the classroom. Staff stated that they intervene when children are biting each other by physically separating the children and using verbal redirection. Staff interviews state it is common for children around the age of 2 years to express their frustration through biting due to difficulties in communicating.

Children interviewed stated they are being supervised by staff in the classroom. Children interviewed disclosed that they have bitten children at school or observed other children at school bite children because they were being mean however, stated that staff are present.

Based on the information gathered during the course of the investigation, the facility infers that the potential cause for children to have habits of biting is due to non-verbal communication or frustration. There were no disclosures or corroborating statements of absence of supervision causing a child to bite another child. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is unsubstantiated.
