daycare closures
A burned out provider or a sick provider is a dangerous provider. A provider needs time off throughout the year and when sick, (such illnesses such as the flu) to insure she is well rested and well enough to ensure the safety of the children in her care.
Scheduled time off:
You will be given at least two (2) weeks’ notice. It is the parent’s responsibility to find back up care.
Scheduled days off include, but not limited to:
The days off due to illness/emergency/personal/bereavement days:
These are taken as needed. It is the parent’s responsibility to find back up care. Please note that illness of myself or my children can come on suddenly leaving very little notice; if any. If I or my children have a simple cold the daycare will remain open.

Weather policy
This is Canada and our weather can vary from one extreme to another. Hence, I feel it necessary to implement an extreme weather policy. Since my clients are under the age of 5 years and their little bodies both overheat and lose heat very quickly, I will not be taking the daycare children outside to play on days where the temperature is:
Stormy weather
With the oncoming of winter, we will be facing stormy weather. I would ask if the weather is bad that you do the following:

Stormy weather
With the oncoming of winter, we will be facing stormy weather. I would ask if the weather is bad that you do the following:
- when possible please leave work early to insure you can pick up your child on time
- arrange to have someone else to pick up your child before or at closing time
- please call to let me know that you are on your way
- drive at a safe speed. I would rather you be late then dead or hurt
Remaining open
I will be open no matter what the weather. It is your responsibility to decide if its safe enough for your to come or not. During bad weather days we will be having an indoor day. Maybe even a movie day.
