COVID19 has changed our lives in more ways than we could imagine. To maintain a safe environment for our children, these are some of our protocols:

​

• We sanitize high-touch areas frequently throughout the day.

•  All teachers wear masks throughout the day.•  

• Prospective parents will take a tour of our facility only after 5 PM when children are no longer in the building.    

• Toddler classroom materials will be steam-sanitized each day.

• All teachers and children that enter our facility will have their temperature taken. Any individual with a temperature at or over 100.3 degrees will be considered as "with fever" and will not be allowed into our facility.

• As per the Department of Childcare and Families guidelines, parents will drop their children at the door. We also have contact-less pick up.

• Full-day pick up time is temporarily changing — parents must pick up their children between 4:30 and 5:00 — in order to allow our staff to adhere to new cleaning and sanitation requirements.

• School events and family gatherings are paused until it is safe to resume.

 

Our daily schedule inside the classroom will stay relatively similar. The changes in departure times are to give us time to sanitize the entire building after daily use. This will be a learning process for us, so please be patient while we figure out what works best for both us and the parents.

​

If an outbreak occurs in our center, we will follow the guidelines of the Hillsborough County Health Department and the CDC. Our understanding is that the school must close for a 10 day quarantine, so parents should prepare for this possibility.
