Pick Up:

Children must be picked up by 6pm each day.  Late fees will begin at 6:05pm and will be charged $1 per minute per child. Late fee payment is due at the same day of pick up or at the time of drop off the following day of care. This policy will be strictly enforced.  Two or more late pick up violations may result in termination of childcare services.

Illness:

Please do not bring your child to the center sick or if they have been in close contact with a person that has covid, the flu or any other virus.  We ask that children with a fever of 100 or more to stay home for the next 24hrs and be fever free upon return.  Children sick at the center will need to be picked up from the center immediately. Sick child will be isolated from the other children and given special attention and comfort until the parents arrive.

It is best to take your sick child to their doctor for a true diagnosis. We will follow doctor's recommendation for absent days and administer medication prescribed by the doctor.  We ask that you please let us know if you child has a communicable disease, so that we can make parents of the classroom aware.  

Medication:

Only prescription medications from the child's doctor can be administered to your child. We do not administer over the counter medication. Ointments and creams can be given to your child if needed with your permission. Parents are required to fill out the proper forms and to supply all medications in their original containers. Prescriptions must have the child's name.  We have 2 medication times: 12pm and 3pm only.

 

Supplies:

Parents are required to bring a blanket (small size baby blanket only) for rest time to be kept at the center on the child's cot. Each Friday all blankets must go home for washing. Children will not be allowed to use a blanket on Monday if not laundered on the past Friday.

Parents are required to bring a change of clothing (including socks) appropriate for the weather to be kept at the center.

Appropriate hats, mittens, boots must be brought to the center in the winter. All items need to be labeled with your child's full name and last name initial.

Meals:

All food will be provided. This includes breakfast, lunch, and afternoon snacks. Parents are responsible for feeding the child if he/she will arrive after a mealtime. Infants are always fed on demand. HCA is on the USDA Child Care Food Program and all meals provided are nutritious and well rounded.
