HOW FIGHTING DAYCARE VIOLATIONS AGAINST ACS AND THE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH CAN SAVE YOUR BUSINESS

 The New York State Department of health regulates daycare centers. They along with ACS investigate allegations of violations at any licensed daycare center. Thes two agencies start with the position that any violation is cause to shut down the daycare. They also both attempt to hold daycares to impossible standards and will use these unfair standards to attack the daycare owner. The DOH will also place your daycare on their website so parents can review the violations. This can be found here. These are also credentialed programs.

What are Credential Programs?

Credentials are academic degrees, licenses or certificates awarded to individuals who successfully complete state or national requirements to enter specialized roles in the early childhood profession.

There are many programs that offer credentials that have been established to improve the competencies of people working with children and their families. Some include:

  • Child Development Associate Credential is the most widely recognized credential in early childhood education and is a key stepping stone on the path of career advancement in early childhood education. This credential is based on a core set of competency standards, which guide early care professionals as they work toward becoming qualified teachers of young children.
  • Children's Program Administrator Credential for New York State is designed to provide for and be recognized as a standard by which to measure program management, fiscal management, and the leadership abilities of early childhood and school-age administrators.
  • Family Child Care Credential is designed to formally recognize those practitioners who demonstrate their competence, knowledge and professional practice in the areas of professional family day care homes, child development, healthy home learning environments and business practices. 
  • Family Development Credential is a program that prepares frontline workers with skills necessary to provide empowerment-based assistance to families so that they might set and obtain goals of healthy self-reliance. 
  • Infant and Toddler Care and Education Credential formally recognizes the value and specialized knowledge, skills and attitudes necessary for practitioners who work with infants and toddlers.
  • School-Age Child Care Credential is designed to promote quality services to children and families by providing specific standards, training and evaluation of school-age staff members and providers.

HOW TO FILE A COMPLAINT AGAINST ACS

We are often asked by parents; how do I file a complaint against the abusive ACS worker. The first thing we advise is not to file an complaints with anyone at ACS. ACS supervisors are there to protect their paychecks and their jobs. They will usually stone wall the parent into giving up. The goal of the ACS supervisors is to ensure that the parents follow the demands of ACS. Also, we do not suggest filing a complaint with any local political office. ACS is so dysfunctional that they are immune to any political pressure of any kind. Mayor Deblasio has failed to correct the problems at ACS and the agency is simply on cruise control with no one in control. The most effective way to file a complaint against an ACS worker is to file suit in federal court. This will get the workers attention and take them out of their comfort zone. We urge parents to obtain an attorney as fast as possible and begin the process of a lawsuit. The federal courts are a neutral place for parents to bring

THE ACS DRUG TEST GAME

As we have discussed, anyone with a phone can call ACS on anyone else. ACS does not investigate who calls. they simply go and attack the parent. One of the most common calls to ACS is that a parent is using "drugs". The ACS worker will then go to the home and demand that the parent take a drug test. This is a trap. The way ACS uses drug tests is as follows. If they are positive, even for marijuana, they will demand that the parent enter into a drug program. If they are negative, they will hide the results and harass the parent until the parent enters a drug program. For ACS , the accusation is the proof of the case. The ACS workers are very poorly trained, badly educated, and extremely arrogant. It is very difficult for parents to deal with them because they are so unprofessional and the parents are not prepared for this. Many ACS workers we have spoke to will not even give us their business cards or full names. In fact, letters that parents receive from ACS only have the wor

THE STEPS OF AN ACS CASE

 In this post we will discuss in depth all of the steps of an ACS case. 1. INVESTIGATION - The case starts with a call being made to ACS or the child abuse hotline that a child is being abused or neglected. It is important to remember that anyone can call on anyone for anything. This will result in an ACS worker coming to your doorstep. This may happen at any time of the day or night. Once they arrive ACS workers look for any reason to create a case against the parents. Even if the case is baseless, the ACS worker will dig into your family until they find something they feel they can use to file charges against your family. This investigation can go on for months. DO NOT SPEAK TO ACS WORKERS WITHOUT AN ATTORNEY. 2. CHILD SAFETY CONFERENCE: This is the legal equivalent of being attacked by a gang The parents are ordered to come to an ACS office where they will be facing ACS workers and supervisors. The ACS workers will be attacking them and not listening to anything that the parents ma
