2.11 ACTIVITIES

The childcare facility offers a wide range of developmentally appropriate early childhood activities for the children. These activities are geared toward promoting the whole development of each child: social, emotional, physical and intellectual. We are fortunate in that we have a very large and secure facility for the children. It is our hope that each child will develop a vision of the world where self-respect and other-respect will occupy a very important place in their hearts and minds. We also hope that the children will develop the competences and skills they will need to help them meet the challenges of the future.

For a typical example of your child’s day, please refer to appendix 1 or 2. 2.12 ARRIVAL AND DEPARTURE

We encourage you to arrive with your child by 9:30 a.m., so that she/he may benefit fully from the program of the day. When you arrive it is of utmost importance that you bring your child directly into the facility and that you leave only when your child’s educator has seen him/her. Parents arriving after 10:00a.m must advice the office. When you return to pick up your child, your responsibility for him/her begins the moment of your arrival. Please keep in mind daycare closes at 6:00p.m. lingering in the hallways and wasting time after 6p.m. cost $1.00/miniute. If you plan on having someone other than the persons indicated in the registration documents come to pick up your child (over 18yrs old), it is imperative that you advise a regular member of our staff. We will never release your child to someone we have not received authorization for.

2.13 HEALTH

We require in the file of each child a copy of the Medical Booklet containing information on the vaccinations you child has received and the signature of the attending physician.

The pharmacist’s label is to indicate the name of the child, the name of the medication, its expiry date, the dosage and the duration of treatment. When authorization from a physician is NOT required: Acetaminophen and oral hydration solutions may be administered without medical authorisation to a child received, provided it is done according to the appropriate procedures outlined in Schedule I of the Regulation.
