Policies & Procedures

The following policies help us maintain a safe, healthy, and nurturing environment for every child. Please review these carefully. A full copy of our Parent Handbook is available on the Contact & Resources page.

Daily Operations

Clothing

Children should wear comfortable, washable play clothes and closed-toe tennis shoes โ€” no sandals or flip-flops please.

Please keep an extra set of labeled, weather-appropriate clothes at the center at all times in case of spills or accidents.

Meals & Snacks

Parents are responsible for providing a nut-free packed lunch each day.

TLC LC provides one healthy snack daily for all children.

Naptime

Daily naptime runs from 12:00 PM to 2:30 PM.

Parents (except for infants) must provide a small, labeled blanket for their child to use during rest time. Blankets are sent home weekly for washing.

Diapering & Potty Training

Parents must supply diapers and wipes for their child. A fee will be charged if the center needs to supply these items.

Potty training primarily takes place in the Cruisers room. We work together with families to support this milestone!

The health and safety of every child in our care is our top priority. Please follow these guidelines to protect all children and staff:

If your child becomes ill during the day, you will be contacted to pick them up promptly. Please ensure your emergency contact information is always current.
