Staying Healthy
Maintaining a Clean Environment
We understand that the nature of our ministry involves a communicable environment and that we have a responsibility to protect well children from exposure to those who are exhibiting the signs listed below. If your child exhibits any of the signs below during the check-in process, or if after receiving a child the teacher has a concern about the child’s wellness, the child will not be able to enter or remain in the area they are in. Please have your numbered claim ticket, phone, or pager handy in the case that we need to contact you about your child's wellness.
Upon the recommendation of the Committee on Control of Infectious Diseases of the American Academy of Pediatrics, a child with any of the following symptoms should stay at home:
- A fever of 99 degrees F in the past 24 hours
- Vomiting or diarrhea in the past 24 hours
- Any symptom of a childhood disease such as chicken pox or whooping cough.
- Symptoms of the flu or a cold
- Nose with excessive or discolored drainage
- Sore throat
- Croup
- Any unexplained rash or skin infection
- Pinkeye or other eye infection
All KidCity areas are equipped with Hand Sanatizer to promote a clean environment. For the wellness of children in our care, a child exhibiting any of these symptoms will not be allowed in any Children's Ministry area. Thank you in advance for your cooperation with these guidelines.
