The ages are 3 Months old through 11 Years old.
Parent/Guardian will be required to come into the playroom and sign their child(ren) in. If a playroom staff person needs to have a child picked up for any reason during their time, the parent will be contacted. Parents will be responsible for any feeding or toileting duties regarding their child(ren).
Due to being short staffed we are as of January 2024 operating at a limited capacity. Please call ahead to find out if we have reached the maximum amount of children allowed to stay within ratio guidelines.
The safety of the children is our upmost concern. Thank you for your understanding and patience.
