- Records & paperwork Serious
  One caregiver reported having 18 children in her group, while a second caregiver mentioned she had 20 children. The third caregiver indicated that there were 15 children in her group. Initially, this totaled 53 children. However, after counting several times, I found that there were only 48 children present. The person in charge insisted there were 53 children, but the caregivers then recalled that some children had left for the day, which led to a revised total of 48 children.
