| Napping
At Children’s Day Out, each class’s daily routine includes
a rest period after lunch. Although the children are not required to sleep
during the rest period, each child is expected to cooperate during the
rest period by resting quietly on his/her sleeping mat without disturbing
the other children.
The Children’s Day Out staff understands that the children need
time to adjust to their class routines, including the rest period. During
the first month of a child’s classes, the teachers will work with
the child to help the child learn the rest period routines and to familiarize
the teachers with the child’s rest habits. If after the first month
of classes for a child, the child is unable to rest quietly on his/her
sleeping mat, the child’s parents will be asked to pick up that
child before the rest period for the remainder of the semester.
If a parent does not want their child to sleep during the rest period,
the parent must pick up the child before the rest period
begins. Under no circumstances will a teacher try to keep a child awake
at the request of a parent.
Toys from home
Children may not bring toys from home to school unless
the toy is a security or comport item used by the child during nap time
or it is brought for a teacher designated special occasions (show and
tell, teddy bear day, etc.) All toys brought from home will be kept in
the child’s backpack until nap time or when needed for the special
occasion. Under no circumstances will toy weapons be allowed. Questions
regarding this policy or any other CDO policy shall be directed to the
Director.
Severe Behavior Problems; Permanent Removal From Children’s
Day Out
Children’s Day Out provides an environment that encourages and promotes
cooperative interaction, respect for others, and non-aggressive problem
solving between the children. Each child is also expected to participate
cooperatively in class activities. If a child is having trouble adapting
socially to Children’s Day Out, the Director will call a parent-teacher-director
conference to address the child’s behavior and possible ways to
deal with the situation. In extreme cases, the Director may permanently
remove from Children’s Day Out a child who, after the parent-teacher-director
conference, is unable to adapt socially to the program.
