When choosing a daycare for your child, it’s important to not only consider location, cost, curriculum, and hours of operation but also to consider the daycare’s safety environment. A well-organized classroom makes children feel more protected and shows parents that their kids are being well cared for.
Harbor Child Care Helps Keep Children Safe
Keeping Dangerous Supplies Out of Reach
We take sharp objects (scissors, bulletin board tacks) and poisonous materials (glue) very seriously. When supplies like these are available during craft time, we always help kids so that they can use these tools safely.
Design the Room Properly
We make sure the classroom is arranged properly at all times. We realize that toys, open closet doors, and bookshelves can prevent teachers from keeping an eye on children so it’s essential that large objects are kept in a place that won’t obstruct views. When toys are not used, we keep the floors clear so no one trips and falls.
First-Aid Kits
Our first-aid kits are always stocked and located in a place that is easy to get to in case of an injury.
Cleanliness is Key
We take cleanliness seriously. Regular hand washing is a standard procedure for our classrooms, especially before and after mealtimes, after using the bathroom, and during other messy moments in the day. We also sanitize on a day-to-day routine to help reduce the spread of germs.
Keep Communication Flowing
At Harbor Child Care, we believe it’s important to keep an open line of communication with parents regarding everything from your child’s activities to keeping you updated on new guidelines and policies.
Harbor Child Care follows all safety measures to ensure your child’s well-being is in a protected environment. For more information, contact us at (516) 493-9830.
