First, Stay & Play is coming on our three year anniversary.  We are very pleased to see how we have become a resource for families looking for a variety of child care options.  It is hard to believe that three years ago we only had three children registered and on most days you could find staff without any children- cleaning, planning and marketing our new program around the county.  Now we have over 150 families registered and a waiting list for some services we offer.  We appreciate all of the families that have used our service and have recommended us to their friends and in the community.

With this anniversary we also had to reapply for our state license.  Stay & Play had an unannounced visit from the Bureau of Child Care Licensing in July by the licensing specialist, who found no violations of critical rules.  The areas that needed work were related to children's files not being up to date.  It is very important that all files are updated annually.  If you know that your registration form or your child's medical form has not been updated please ask me for the appropriate forms.  Staff will also be asking parents who come in on a regular basis to update files.  Thank you for your cooperation on this matter.

 

Second, families that attend on a regular basis will be receiving a letter in the mail regarding rate changes, effective September 1st.  Also, there will be some addendum to the Parent handbook which will be available mid August and include changes in days that we are closed and an inclusion policy.  Those families who do not receive this information will be able to access it Mid- September on our website The HUB Family Resource Center
