Dear Parents,

Post Covid here there have been some additional items added to our daily routines.

Many already existed but for purposes of creating a standardized information form they will all be listed here. As we work together to keep our kids and families healthy and feeling safe to bring their kids out, I am adding the following to previously stated requirements.

1. If you have Google Pay, Apple Pay please let’s utilize those to reduce handling of cash. I have hooked up PayPal to my website however there is a 3% fee added. Pre 2020 Parent's the Link is on my Email Reminders Page. https://nocofoshojrvbc.tripod.com/tlc/id23.html Yes, I will still take checks and cash if that is your preferred method.

1. Please check your child’s temperatures prior to bringing them, any temp of 100.4 or higher are the official numbers not allowed. Childcare did state that children’s temps change and are more accurate in the latter afternoon/evening, so I am taking temps in the latter afternoon.

2. In an effort to reduce cup mix ups, I ask that you don’t bring cups, if there is something you would like for me to give them in the morning for breakfast, just bring it and I will fill their cups here. We are working to teach the kids to keep them out of reach of those little ones that do not know any better.

3. Breakfast will now be provided - This cuts down on outside products with touch surfaces, to control the environment so to speak. Also, all meals will be eaten in the back room. I will provide waffles, French toast, pancakes, fruit bars.

1. Sanitation occurs throughout the day. Control of eating assists with this. Though Lysol is not found out there, I have found a sanitizing product that kills 99.9%. Some things I have added to the sanitizing list are the front/back porch rails, door handles outside. All touch surfaces are sanitized a minimum of 3x/day and the toys are sanitized after the kids leave nightly.

2. I will sign you in and out daily to eliminate another touch surface.

3. Everyone is well staggered in arrival times, however if another parent is here, please, allow them their space so we all feel comfortable. If you have noticed I work to keep a distance as often as possible for everyone’s comfort levels.

4. To keep myself healthy for you, I have gone to 98% delivery of groceries and household items, I wear a mask when out to protect me.

5. For your child’s health I have added an Air Scrubber to the house’s furnace/air conditioning unit and a Medify 25 Hepa 13 air filter. This is where my federal stimulus went.

I am eternally grateful, for your continued support during this Pandemic, without which my business could not have survived.

 For the record- as an Alderman I do not qualify for Small Business Loans, Nor did I qualify for un/under employment.

So, THANK YOU with all my Heart …….
