Child Care for Valley Fitness Policy

PROVIDING CHILDCARE FOR VALLEY FITNESS

In an effort to provide an environment that is pleasant, safe, sanitary and protective for your child during their visit, the following policies have been established.

1. We require children to be 60 days of age or older and to have received their first series of shots: Diphtheria, Whooping Cough, Tetanus and Polio Vaccine before using our services.

2. Illness Policy: You may bring your child with: Don’t bring your child with: – a slight runny nose with clear mucous – an infrequent cough – temperature under 100 - a cloudy or green runny nose – a congested cough that’s frequent – a temperature over 100 degrees – head lice – diarrhea.

3. If your child has missed school because of illness, they are also too ill to be in our childcare facility.

4. Children must be signed in and out by their parent/guardian for insurance purposes. Please do not have your child sign themselves in. The child’s first and last name is to be written, as well as the time you arrive.

5. Parent/Guardian must remain on the premises of Valley Fitness while child is in our care. Children will not be released to anyone other than their parent/guardian.

6. For your child’s safety, once a child is walking, shoes are to be worn at all times.

7. Dangerous toys, such as balloons, guns, and sharp objects are not allowed. If your child brings their own toy and uses it inappropriately, the toy will be put up and given to you when you pick up your child. If your child returns with the toy at a later session we expect the toy to be used in an appropriate manner.

8. We request that chewing gum not be provided to your child.

9. Sprout Daycare and Valley Fitness are not responsible for items brought from home, in the event of loss, breakage, or theft.

10. An extra change of clothes must be brought with your child. We do not provide diapers or wipes. Please bring whatever your child needs.

11. We ask that all children respect childcare providers, other parents and their playmates. We also expect the children to be polite. If your child is disruptive he/she will be given a “time out” and then be asked to apologize to his/her playmates. If the disruption continues, you will be called from your workout.

12. In order to provide adequate care, it is necessary to limit the number of children on the premises. I may on occasion further limit this number because of additional demands incurred by several babies. Please call ahead with at least 2 hours advance notice to schedule childcare. Our number is (760) 694-8080.

13. Payment is due upon arrival of your child. The hourly rate is $5.00.
