City Hall Child Care Society will notify families of a midday closure under the following conditions:

• Any of the above or:

• The Executive Director may decide to close the daycare early If the daycare opens but conditions worsen - 

• Weather changes and snow accumulates during the day whereby transportation to and from the daycare becomes unsafe

                     Should this occur parents will be contacted by program staff and given a specified time to pick up their child.

                                                       Late fines will apply during an Emergency Closure.

 

City Hall Child Care Society remains open with snow conditions

• When CHCCS remains open, the travel time to the daycare may be challenging for staff. 

• Parents may be asked to stay until we can ensure we have adequate staffing to meet these licensing requirements.

 

We would appreciate your help to clear the walkways

Although the snow is pretty to look at, it poses a safety risk as the walkways can be quite slippery.  The daycare is responsible to keep the walkway around the perimeter of the daycare clear.  Staff may not have time to do this in the morning before the children arrive.  We would appreciate it if you have time at drop off to help staff clear the snow and salt the walkway, we have shovels and salt available.          

 

THANK YOU
