Creek Kids

Please bring your child’s diaper bag, cup, and an extra change of clothes. All items should be labeled with their name. Upon checking in, you will receive a sticker tag to place on the diaper bag. If your child is potty-training or potty-trained, please bring an extra pull-up or diaper.

We ask that no outside food or drinks be brought into the classrooms. Occasionally we will provide a snack during special circumstances. At that time we will have allergy-friendly snacks available. However, bottles and baby food are allowed in the infant nursery and will be given at your request/instruction.

If parent assistance is needed, you will receive a text requesting you to come to your child’s classroom. For this reason, please keep your phone with you but on silent.

The safety of our Creek Kids is of utmost importance to us. Having various systems in place in the following areas allows us to ensure we are providing the safest environment possible for your children.

• Volunteers: Each Creek Kids volunteer meets our membership requirements and has passed a background check. These are run upon applying for a volunteer position and updated every two years. Volunteers go through training to become “Ministry Safe Certified”.  We maintain a safe ratio of volunteers to children according to age categories. In addition, we always have two adults in each class. 
• Cleaning/Sanitizing: In addition to the regular cleaning of the building, toys in classrooms are cleaned and disinfected after each use and in between services. Sanitizing stations are provided outside of each classroom. 
• Check-In/Out: Upon arrival at Creekside, each Creek Kid will be checked in and receive a sticker name tag that includes their age, grade, classroom number, event name, and unique family safety number. The parents/guardian will receive a tag with the same number. This tag will be used to check the children out of class. Children will only be allowed to be dismissed to an adult that presents a matching safety number. This process can also be done using our app if the tag is lost or misplaced. An alternate trusted adult may also be added by a parent/guardian at our Creek Kids Guest check-in counter. 

Allergies/Medical Specifications: When your child is registered in our system, any allergies or medical issues that may need to be known while they are in our care will be noted in their profile. This will also appear on their printed name tag so that the responsible adults will be aware should a situation arise where this information could be pertinent.
