ARRIVALS: Parents must sign children in each day. At the CDC this involves entering required data in the front desk computers AND signing in manually within the child activity room. Please provide accurate phone numbers where you can be reached in the event of an emergency that day. Please assist your child in removing hats, gloves, etc. Parents remain responsible for the safety and guidance of their children until they are greeted by the caregiver.

DEPARTURES: At the end of the day, please allow you child enough time to clean up before leaving. Putting play things away teaches responsibility. Also sign out at the appropriate location/s. Look for special notes/papers in your child's cubby or at the parent information area in the room.

ALTERNATE PICK UP: In emergency or unusual situations, you may authorize someone who is at least 14 years of age to pick up or drop off your child. These people must be notated on your DA Form 5224 as emergency notification and release designees. Both CDC and FCC request a courtesy notification when using alternate pick-up unless it is an emergency situation. Advance notification in writing is preferred. Your child will not be allowed to leave the facilitv with an unauthorized person.
