Supervision & Injury Prevention

The safety of every child is our highest priority.

  • Children will always be supervised.
  • The child-to-staff ratio is approximately 12:1.
  • The staff will circulate throughout the activity areas.
  • On the playground, the staff will continually circulate through the areas where the children are playing, with specific attention directed to the large equipment areas on the playground.
  • The playground staff will be aware of non-Day Care/ASAP people utilizing the campus. People not participating in a sanctioned and supervised activity (such as soccer or lacrosse practice) may be asked to leave.
  • In the event of an injury that requires first aid, the Center Supervisor or the Assistant Center Supervisor will complete an accident report.
  • If an injury is more serious, the parents will be notified immediately. For less serious injuries, the parents may be notified by telephone or when they pick-up their child.
  • In the event of a serious injury, the staff will call 911, and then notify the parents/guardians.
  • A copy of each accident report is placed in the family’s Parent File.
  • The accident reports are reviewed periodically to assess potential problem areas, activities or equipment.
