You will be free to pick up, drop off, and visit your child(ren) at times that are most convenient for you throughout the event.

 

Location

The child care program will be held near the Athlete’s Lounge at the Home Depot Center.

 

Parents Provide

Parents will need to provide bottles, formula, baby food, diapers, and ointments as needed. Refrigeration for the bottles will be available. We will ask the parents of infants to complete a more detailed feeding and sleeping schedule when their child arrives in care.  Please provide an extra change of clothing for your child each day (please read the Bright Horizons Family Center drawstring policy included in this packet).  Be sure to bring any special toys or blankets that will make the transition into care easier for your child. 

 

Meals

Bright Horizons Family Solutions will provide child-friendly snacks for those children who are eating table food. 

 

Naps

Bright Horizons Family Solutions will provide cribs for infants and cots for older children as well as all bed linens.

 

Medication

Please alert the staff to any medications that your child is taking when you arrive at the event or on the attached child history form.  However, because the event care is temporary and our teachers will not have had sufficient time to observe your child’s normal reaction to medications, we ask that parents administer all necessary medications for their child(ren) while in our care.

 

Registration

To register for child care at the event, please send:

• A picture of your child(ren).  We will use pictures to prepare a welcoming display for your child and for security purposes during the event.
• A photocopy of your driver’s license or a picture ID for security purposes.
• Child Care Registration Form (attached—one for each child)
