need advice on HORRID coworker

This coworker started in the 2’s room about a month ago. I truly believe that they are lying about changing diapers. I’ve told my director multiple times and I do not believe she talked to them. It’s getting to the point that me and parents feel like we should report it. I relieve her for her breaks and when she leaves, either I go to her class or her kids get moved around to my class/another room. All of them are constantly soiled and in the incorrect diapers. Cream isn’t applied either. TShe doesn’t wipe them good or wipe their faces or anything. When I ask her when she changed them she tells me 2 hours ago which is the rule for diapers. In the app all children have the same diaper time. I just feel like my concerns and parents concerns are not being took seriously. The potty training kids are regressing and sometimes in diapers not even pull ups or 360s like other children’s diapers. Her room is filthy I am constantly scrubbing food off the floor because she does not clean anything (but honestly that is the least of my concern) I’ve thought about leaving a note for her and I have in the past just like a diaper schedule and information about some kids who are sensitive, a list of who’s potty trained etc. . I just feel hopeless and terrible for the kids who have to deal with her all day. She hasn’t worked with that young of children before so i’ve tried to give her the benefit of the doubt and talk to her and ask if she needs help. She literally rolls her eyes and says “I already know this” every time I talk to her. My other coworkers said she does that to them too. I just feel like i cannot communicate with her in words effectively. I have never met somebody so incompetent in my life. I have a short temper when it comes to adults. Her rolling her eyes and giving me weird looks like I’m the one in the wrong really rub me the wrong way. I’ve communicated with my director, i’ve pulled my director into the room multiple times so that she can see with her own eyes. Yet nothing has changed. I don’t know what to do. I don’t want to get anyone in “trouble” but it’s to the point she’s neglecting the kids whose parents don’t work there. Even the ones whose parent does aren’t having their needs met. 1:8 ratio of 2 year olds is overwhelming for anyone but i’d never let the kids get to that state or the room so I don’t understand why she is so comfortable doing that. I just don’t know what to do I have a terrible feeling in my gut that something is wrong. Any advice is appreciated.
