Parents are required to evaluate their child for illness every day before bringing them to our facility. If your child has a temperature of 100 degrees or higher, or has any other symptoms of illness, they need to stay home until they have been fever-free for 24 hours without medication (Tylenol) and their symptoms have resolved. This includes excessive coughing and lethargy. Do not bring your child to the Facility if they appear to be sick. Families will be contacted to pick up their child if they develop a fever of 100 or higher while at the Facility, or for any of the reasons listed within our Sickness Policy in our Parent Handbook.

Positive influenza, RSV, COVID19 or any other contagious illness cases reported within the Facility: We will notify families at our parent sign in counter but we will not automatically quarantine or close classrooms. However, it may be necessary to close a classroom if too many of our staff are absent due to illness or quarantine, so families should be prepared by having alternate child care arrangements available. We evaluate our procedures on a regular basis and make changes as necessary for the health and safety of our staff and the children.


  • Please call the Facility and report if your child is sick or has had a positive test to a contagious illness.  We are required to report certain illnesses to the Health Department. Children can typically return when they have been symptom free for 24 hours. This means they have not received any pain reliever (Tylenol) for 24 hours, their eyes are not discharging, they are not excessively coughing, sores have healed and are not discharging, among other possible symptoms that might be present. However, there are some contagious illnesses that have additional requirements prior to returning. This is why it is important to inform us when your child is sick.
