  • Notify the priority #1&2 contacts, emergency contacts and authorized individual as indicated on the most recent Child Record Form as soon as possible

  • Obtain medical assistance when necessary

  • Report all illness to daycare manager/designate as soon as possible.

 

Procedure for Accidents or Incidents

In the case of an accident or incident, caregivers will complete an accident/incident reporting form and submit it to the daycare manager/designate once signed by the parent (within 24 hours).

 

Reportable Incident

Sparwood Treehouse Daycare will notify licensing within 24 hours if;

  • A child is involved in, or may have been involved in, a reportable incident described in Schedule H of Community Care and Assisted Living Act Child Care Licensing Regulation while under the care or supervision of Sparwood Treehouse Daycare

  • Parents are required to update information once yearly or when things change.

 

Emergency Plan

  • In the event we are unable to re-entre the building for an extended period of time we will walk to the Sparwood Recreation Centre, located at, 367 Pine Ave Sparwood, B.C.

  • If in the event the neighbourhood is evacuated, we will walk or drive to the Sparwood Fire Hall, located at 479 Pine Ave Sparwood, B.C.

 

Your Child’s First Day

Each child is assigned a cubby labeled with their name for their personal belongings.  Be sure to label all of your child’s belongings clearly.  Sparwood Treehouse Daycare cannot prevent loss of items. Toys/action figures or other materials that promote violence, swearing or other inappropriate behaviour will not be permitted on the premises. 

 

Separation may be difficult for some children.  In order to prepare your child, we recommend you discuss where your child will be going and what you will be doing while they are in care.  When you arrive, take a few minutes to put your child’s items in their cubby, look around the room with your child, and greet the teachers and other children who are nearby. 

  • Establish trust; tell your child that this is a safe place and that the teachers will take care of him/her while you are away.  If you are nervous and show that, your child will have a harder time accepting the new environment. It is important to show that you are confident by smiling and/or talking about the fun things we do at daycare.

  • Acknowledge feelings; it’s typical for children to be upset during the first few days/weeks of attending.  Take the time to validate your child’s feelings and give them comfort by telling him/her when you will return (eg. after nap time) and then leave. 

  • Never “sneak out” on your child.  By sneaking out you will not establish trust; this will create anxiety and fear of your unknown and unexpected disappearance. 

 

Parent Routines for Drop-off and Pick-Up

  • Children MUST be dropped off with an on-duty caregiver.  Please make sure to have open communication with your child’s caregiver by communicating day-to-day information regarding your child’s demeaner, health and well-being at drop-off and pick-up.  

  • It is a licensing regulation for children to be signed in for the day upon arrival and signed out upon departure.  The child attendance book is located in each classroom in the coat room.  During practice evacuation drills the child attendance book is used to ensure all children have evacuated the building; if your child is not signed in for the day, s/he may not be accounted for. 

  • Parents are welcome to observe at any time without notice.  You may go into your child’s classroom.  If you enter the classroom, keep in mind that your child may expect to leave with you.  If you must return to school or work, you will need to help your child with this transition. 

  • Check your child’s cubby for notices, soiled clothing and artwork.  Artwork will be disposed at the end of each week to avoid clutter. 

  • Inform the Daycare Manager (in writing) of any changes in your child’s routine that may affect his/her needs or behaviour including health and any events at home.

  • If you are not at your usual contact site, please inform staff.  We must be able to contact you in the event of an emergency.

  • Should an emergency arise and you will be late picking your child up, please contact the centre immediately so we can make staffing arrangements. 

 

​

Authorized Pick Up

Children will only be released to the authorized persons you identified on the registration form. They must be at least 12 years of age and have picture ID if that person is unknown to staff. Should the names of people authorized to pick up your child change we must receive written notification.

 

Safe Release of a Child

It is our legal responsibility, to the extent possible, not to release a child to an authorized person who appears unable to adequately care for a child. This could include, but is not limited to: appearing to be under the influence of drugs, alcohol, if the person is emotionally distraught or extremely ill. If we believe that a child may be at increased risk we will:

a) Offer to call the emergency contact, a friend or relative to pick up the parent and child

Or

b) Call a taxi

If a presumed impaired person chooses to get in the car with or without the child, we will immediately notify the RCMP. The Ministry of Children and Families will also be contacted if it is felt the child is in need of protection.

 

Confidentiality

As there are many parents in and out of the daycare on any given day, it is important that everyone understands the importance of confidentiality; this applies to parents, staff, board members and guests of the center. Please refrain from discussing things heard within the daycare to be courteous and conscious of others privacy. If you have any concerns regarding confidentiality please bring it to the attention of the daycare manager.
