Your little ones are precious to us and great care is taken
to maintain a clean and secure environment for them
in the following ways:
Cleanliness
Workers wear clean smocks and shoe covers and change for each shift. Frequent hand washing is stressed and waterless hand sanitizers are supplied in each room. When a baby occupies a bed, sheets are changed and the bed is cleaned before another child can occupy the crib. All “touch surfaces” and all toys in the younger preschool area are completely disinfected after all services.
Health policies posted outside each door are strictly enforced. Anyone who is ill, appears ill, or has been ill in the last 24 hours should not serve in the nursery. Any child who is sick or has fever, vomiting, diarrhea, or any contagious illness will not be accepted into a preschool room.
Safety
A National background check is run on each volunteer after they fill out their volunteer application. Willowbrook utilizes the Parent Pager system to ensure secure check-in/check-out procedures. All parents of bed babies are required to check out a pager from their child’s classroom; other preschoolers' parents may check out a pager upon request at any Parent Pager check-in computer station.
A video security system is installed in every preschool room, allowing parents to view their child without the child seeing them. Parents may check the monitors at any time.
Nursery Staff
Paid Coordinators oversee the care of children in the baby rooms (bed babies through crawling/beginning walkers). They work along-side our volunteers to ensure consistency in care and procedures.
Diapering
All babies' diapers are changed during each service hour or more often if needed. Every baby is changed on clean, disposable paper on the changing table. All diaper-changing facilities are located in the front of the room in full view for security. All nursery workers wear gloves when changing diapers and wash their hands and use hand sanitizers before changing another baby.
