High risk Caregivers must supervise every child at all times: close enough to step in, and always aware of what each child is doing.
State rule 746.1205(a)(4) (minimum standards for child-care centers): "Supervision ensures each child's safety, well-being, including physical proximity and auditory or visual awareness of each child's on going activity"
Inspector's note: This standard was evaluated and found deficient. A child was left alone in the classroom unsupervised for more than 1 minute.
Corrected Aug 28, 2026, verified by the state Sep 3, 2026. The inspector gave technical assistance (advice on how to comply).
Medium-high risk A sign-in and sign-out record must be kept for every child, as the state requires.
State rule 746.631(a) (minimum standards for child-care centers): "Sign-in and Sign-out Tracking System"

What the risk levels mean
Texas gives every rule a weight from High to Low, based on the risk to children when it is broken. A citation is one rule found not met at one visit. How to read a Texas inspection report.
- High risk: breaking it can put a child in immediate danger (for example supervision, ratios, safe sleep, background checks, prohibited punishment).
- Medium-high risk: a real safety or health concern, but usually less immediate (for example hazards in a room, missing medical or allergy information, required training).
- Medium risk: important for health and safety over time (for example records, drills, equipment upkeep).
- Medium-low risk: mostly paperwork or reporting that supports safety.
- Low risk: administrative requirements with little direct risk to children.
