Childminding / Creche
Trying to keep fit while looking after your kids isn’t always easy. We offer childminding so you can exercise without the stress of worrying what your kids are up to. Below is a few things to keep in mind before dropping your kids off to us.
Please provide anything your child may need such as bottles, nappies, drink bottle and snacks. Nappy change facilities are available. Supervised morning tea from 9.30am onwards. Please no lollies, chips, popcorn, yoghurt or nut products.
Please name all bags, lunch boxes and drink bottles so we can be sure that each child is given the correct morning tea.
At the discretion of staff, the parent may be asked to return to childminding to feed or change nappies.
A microwave is available for heating food and bottles.
As we have children of varying ages in childminding, we ask that children do not bring their own toys as what may be suitable for your child may not be suitable for a younger child. Soft comfort toys are acceptable. We do not take any responsibility for the loss or damage of items bought in from home such as iPads or toys.
Parents must collect all children within the allocated childminding hours.
Children are to be signed in and out by the same person. This person must remain at AJ’s whilst the child is in childminding.
Please ensure staff are aware of any special diet, allergies, toilet training, special needs or behaviour and medical conditions that may require attention.
Staff are not authorised to give medication.
Children with infectious illnesses such as cold and flu, scabies, chicken pox, head lice, school sores or cold sores, foot and mouth, and conjunctivitis will not be allowed into childminding.
If at any time your child is distressed, or they have disorderly conduct your assistance will be sought.
