Upon arriving, your child must be escorted to a staff member on duty. Our responsibility begins when the parents inform us that their child has arrived. It is the parents’ responsibility to dress and undress your child upon arrival and departure.
Staff must be notified if a person other than yourself will be picking up your child. The person should be prepared to show I.D. if it is their first time at the Centre.
Parents are asked to please call the Centre before 9:00 a.m. if your child is going to be absent or late.
Intoxication Policy
In the event a parent/guardian or other authorized individual arrives intoxicated or otherwise impaired, or a staff suspects this, the Mattawa Child Care Centre have specific procedures they are required to follow. All staff are instructed to request that the parent take a taxi or call the other parent to come and get them and the child. If the parent does not observe the request, the Ontario Provincial Police will be called to aid the staff.
