Your child's health is a matter of importance to us. Children's emergency information is readily available in the office and in the child's classroom. A child who shows symptoms of illness during preschool hours will lie down on a mat in the classroom while the director or a teacher calls a parent or authorized person. The child will be made as comfortable as possible and will be supervised at all times. If necessary, medical assistance will be secured. In the event of a life-threatening emergency, we will call 911. Necessary first-aid will be given. The staff is trained in the administration of first-aid and CPR.

Keep your home even if they are just tired. Rest at such times may prevent the development of serious illness.
