We are well into “sick season,” and we wanted to assure you that we take the health of your children very seriously. We would like to take the time to update you on the precautions we take to ensure that we remain as sanitary an environment as possible. If we work together, we believe we are able to provide a safe, clean nursery for your little ones.
Our responsibilities:
- We have committed to sanitizing our entire play areas, eating areas, and diapering/toileting areas with a product called DZ-7. This neutral disinfectant cleaner was thoughtfully chosen because it has no active ingredients that are harmful to children. It is sensitive to viruses, including the H1N1 virus. This is a recent change from the DMQ product we have used for years, specifically because of DZ-7’s ability to target H1N1.
- We have a policy of glove use, hand washing, and sanitization after every diaper change. Diaper changing is only done by a paid staff member.
- All blankets, bedding, and spit cloths are machine washed after each use. We also hand or machine wash any toys we have seen put into a child’s mouth.
- We keep hand sanitizer at our check in counter, in our kitchen, and in every room.
- We are vigilant about asking parents to retrieve an obviously ill child.
Thank you for trusting in us and bringing your precious child to class each week! We strive to be deserving of your trust. Please contact us with any questions or concerns.
