Through this pandemic, First Class Children’s Centre has taken the appropriate steps to make the staff and children safe in course with public health and the ministry of Educations.

​

• Educators wear masks 100% of the time indoors. Each educator has a visor to use as necessary. Masks are not required whilst outdoors

• Classroom's & playgrounds have been modified for increased protection

• Additional staff on site to disinfect doors, bathrooms, toys.

• Adjusted special events to minimize exposure to outside adults. Special activities will continue with in-house instructors.

• Parents are permitted inside the building strictly with a mask (unless a medical exemption is provided). Parents are asked to minimize their time on site.

• Parents and staff answer a family health questionnaire each morning on arrival

• A “no-touch” temperature reading is taken for each child and staff member upon arrival.

• Additional hand washing is scheduled for both children and staff.

• Mandatory hand sanitizer upon entry for adults.

• Protocols are in place if a child were to develop an illness while at the daycare. A child with a fever or a new cough, will be quarantined with a dedicated staff member until their parents arrive.

• Separate entrances and exits into the facilities for parents.

• In case of a positive COVID occurrence, parents will be informed the same day by email.

• Public Health Ontario will be immediately contacted on any positive test to enable tracing contact, evaluating, isolation, etc.
