Pick up policy:

Due to safety of all the children in the Child Development we are adding too and better enforcing our pick-up policy. People who are able to pick-up must meet the following criteria:

  • Be an approved person on the pick-up list (this is filled out upon enrollment)
    • If not then the parent must call and let the in-charge person know about pick-up arrangements or some one will call them.
  • The authorized person MUST provide a photo ID and be at least 18 years of age

Also, No information will be given over the phone about any child/parent due to lack of verification.

Thank you for your understanding,
