Enrollment:
I have important paperwork that I will need you to
complete before I can begin to have your child in my
care. I will need you to keep me informed of any
address or phone number changes in case I need to reach
you. No enrollment fees or deposits required!
Open Door Policy:
You are welcome to come to my home anytime during
my regular daycare hours. I will keep my doors locked
for the safety of the children, but just knock and I will
quickly let you in.
Late Fee:
If you will be late picking up your child, you need to call
me and let me know. There will be a late fee of $5.00
per 15 minutes added onto your usual weekly fee if you
are late without letting me know in advance.
Payment:
Payment for childcare is due each Monday morning prior
to the week's care. If I am given a check that bounces,
then there will be a $25 fee added onto your usual
payment (due to charges that the bounced check causes
with the bank). If a second check bounces then I will only
accept cash payments from then on. If payment
continues to be a problem, then I will have no choice but
to terminate care immediately.
If the daycare is closed to due a holiday, your payment is
still due in full for that week. If your child is out sick,
your payment is due in full for that week as well. If you
are planning a vacation please let me know at least 2
weeks in advance. You are allowed one week per year
of not paying for 1 week if your child is absent. Any
additional weeks of absence, then you must pay your
regular fees in order to hold your child's space. (Your
"year period" begins on your anniversary date of when
your child begins coming to the daycare).
If I am closed due to a personal full week of vacation,
then you do not have to pay for services that week.
These rules are for full AND part time children. By
paying your regular daycare fee each week, you are
holding your child's space.
Immunizations:
Your child's immunizations MUST be completely up to
date before coming to the daycare. There are no
exceptions due to the California State Law. A "California
School Immunization" blue card will be filled out and
kept on file for each child who is not yet attending public
school. I will remind you when your child's next shots
are coming up to be due.
Hygiene:
I ask that the children arrive bathed and smelling fresh
and clean with a clean diaper and clothed appropriately
each day. Please keep the child's fingernails trimmed to
avoid scratching of themselves, the other children and
the furniture.
Meals:
I provide breakfast, snack and lunches and drinks for the
children. This is included in your weekly fee. The only
things I do not supply as far as meals is: I do not provide
formula for the infants or jars of baby food. If you have
an infant that is taking formula or eating jars of baby
food, then you would need to maintain a supply for
him/her.
Sickness Policy:
Please do not bring your child to the daycare if he or she
is sick! A doctor's note will be needed to show me that
your child has been cleared to be around the other
children if a contagious type of sickness has occurred. I
will call you and ask you to pick up your child if I believe
that they are too ill to be in the daycare home. Your
child can return to the daycare when he or she is no
longer contagious (usually 24 hours after the symptoms
are completely gone and/or 24 hours after antibiotics
have begun).
If your child is running a fever of 100.0 F, I will notify
you and let you decide if they should go home. If your
child has a fever of 101.0 F or higher, you will need to
pick them up asap. Our policy is that your child must
remain free of fever for 24 hours before returning to
daycare. This means that if your child is picked up at 3:00
p.m. from the daycare, but still has a fever at 6:00 p.m.
or later that evening at home, he or she cannot return to
the daycare the next day. The 24 hours begins when
your child’s fever has broken and remains in a normal
range.
Reasons why the child cannot come to daycare:
A fever of 101.0 F or higher, the flu, persistent diarrhea,
vomiting, a bad cold with hacking or persistent cough,
green or yellow nasal drainage, productive cough with
green or yellow phlegm being coughed up, strep throat,
bronchitis, rashes linked to an infection (chicken pox,
impetigo, scabies, measles), pink eye and head lice.
It is my hope to keep the daycare as germ-free and sick-
free as possible. Once one child comes to the daycare
sick, he or she is exposing everyone to that sickness. It
can be a horrible sick cycle! So lets keep it healthy!
Potty Training:
I will make every effort to potty train your child if you
would like me to do so. I will begin when the child
appears to be ready for this step. Usually it is around 2
or 3 years old. I will ask that your child wear pull-ups
during this period of potty training and I ask that he or
she is being potty trained at home the same time so that
it will make it a much easier and quicker process.
Filing Your Taxes:
I keep track of every payment that you make for your
daycare payments through out the year. At the end of
the year, I will be giving you a receipt along with special
form for you to use when you file your taxes with the
dollar amount of how much you paid for the year along
with my tax I.D. # so you can claim this on your taxes.
House Rules:
I ask that the children:
Do not hit, push, bite, kick, scratch or pinch each other.
No name calling, teasing, bullying or using bad words.
No mistreatment of the daycare items or furniture.
I do not use any kind of spanking or demeaning words to
discipline children. I try to emphasize to the children to
"use their words" and communicate with each other and
to myself. I will re-direct them to another activity when
there is a problem. If it gets worse then they might lose
privileges to play with a certain toy they enjoy until they
learn what the consequences are. I use positive
reinforcement and rewards for good behavior. The first
week of daycare is usually a "trial period" to see how
your child fits in with the other daycare children. The
children I care for are all very sweet to each other so I
try to maintain a great group of children that get along
with one another as I feel that is VERY important.
I have important paperwork that I will need you to
complete before I can begin to have your child in my
care. I will need you to keep me informed of any
address or phone number changes in case I need to reach
