| (a) Each toddler must receive individual attention,
including playing, talking, and cuddling.
(b) A toddler's caregiver must ensure that the environment
is safe. For example, free the area of objects that may choke or harm
the toddler, take measures to prevent electric shock, free the area
of furniture that is in disrepair or unstable, and allow no unsupervised
access to water to prevent the risk of drowning.
(c) A toddler's caregiver must never leave the toddler
unsupervised. A toddler is considered supervised if the caregiver
is within eyesight or hearing range of the child and can intervene
as needed, or if the caregiver uses a video camera or an audio monitoring
device to monitor the child and is close enough to the child to intervene
as needed.
