Safety Statement
Handing your child to someone else’s care is a big decision. We take that trust seriously. Here is how we keep your child safe every day.
Secure Entry and Cameras
Our front entrance has keypad entry and magnetic locking doors. 21 HD security cameras cover our campus. Every visitor is screened and escorted for the whole visit.
Screened Teachers
Every teacher is background checked and fingerprinted before working with children.
Drop-Off and Pick-Up
At drop-off, we walk each child straight to the classroom and hand them to a teacher. No child is ever left on their own. Parents and approved adults check children in and out every day with the Brightwheel app. We release children only to parents, guardians, and people you have approved in Brightwheel. Anyone else needs your written permission ahead of time and must show photo ID.
Supervision
Our teachers stay close to the children all day, and we keep our teacher-to-child ratios low. Sleeping infants and young toddlers are watched by sight and sound at all times. You can also see your child's day through photos, videos, and messages in our secure Brightwheel app.
Ready for Emergencies
Our building has smoke alarms, a sprinkler system, and emergency lighting. Each month, we practice our fire evacuation plan with children and staff.
Clean, Healthy Classrooms
We clean and sanitize our classrooms and play areas several times a day with non-toxic supplies. We also disinfect classrooms and play equipment with a medical-grade Protexus electrostatic sprayer. Children eat their meals and snacks in their own classrooms, and every classroom has its own bathroom. This limits the amount of cross-classroom interaction. Handwashing is part of every classroom's day.
We are devoted to keeping our children, staff, and families safe.
Regards and blessings,
Ann and Rob
