ILLNESS

In consideration of the other children, members, and our staff, Choice Health & Fitness reserves the right to refuse entry of sick children into childcare if they currently are, or have been, experiencing any of the following symptoms:

  • Fever in the past 24 hrs. >(98.6* F)
  • Diarrhea or vomiting in past 24 hrs
  • Pink Eye (redness & inflammation)
  • Undiagnosed rash
  • Green discharge from eyes or nose
  • Other illnesses that may present a danger to other children, staff, or members

BEHAVIOR

We realize that children will sometimes misbehave, but there are some instances where parental intervention may be needed

  • Bad behavior – first, verbally told that behavior is unacceptable. Second warning is a time out. Third warning, we will get the parents.
  • Biting – if this occurs, we will locate parents immediately and ask that their child be removed for the rest of the day.

Please make sure your child is taken to the bathroom or has a clean diaper prior to coming into childcare. We do not provide diapers, teething rings or snacks.

* We are unable to give scheduled naps, potty train, or give one on one attention.

* When checking in your child, please inform childcare staff where you will be in the facility.
