Health & Safety Plan
The health & safety of all the children, teachers and families who are a part of our center is extremely important to us. If you have any questions about our health & safety plan, please contact us at info@CoquitlamChildcare.com
We want to assure you that we are following all the Health & Safety guidelines recommended specifically for childcare by the B.C. Centre for Disease Control.
Our goal is to provide care in an environment that nurture each child’s uniqueness, hence we are committed to create this environment in partnership with parents to develop a sense of belonging. We also encourage learning through play and guide children’s behavior in positive ways.
We have implemented these guidelines as follows:
STAYING HOME WHEN SICK:
- Our policy is that no one enters our facility (child, teacher or otherwise) that is sick or is displaying the key symptoms of influenza or communicable disease.
- Parents are required to do a health check every day prior to bringing their child(ren) to the center.
- If a child develops symptoms while at the center, we will separate them immediately from the others and call their parents to pick them up. The areas that child was in will be thoroughly disinfected and sanitized.
- If a teacher develops symptoms, they will be sent home from work. We have additional care provider on standby to ensure we meet the required teacher-to-child ratios.
PERSONAL BELONGINGS:
- We ask that all children take home their personal belongings every day and ensure they are cleaned regularly.
- For our infants and toddlers, we keep pillows and blankets on-site at the center (provided by us) and wash them regularly.
