Proper hygiene is essential to maintaining a healthy environment for all children. Staff and children wash hands thoroughly with soap and water at the following times:
- Upon arrival and before leaving
- Before and after eating
- After using the restroom or diaper changes
- After outdoor play
- After handling animals or pets
- After coughing, sneezing, or blowing nose
All surfaces, toys, and equipment are cleaned and sanitized regularly. Diaper changing areas are sanitized after each use.
