Sick/Personal Days
As strong as our immune system has become over the years, we unfortunately still get sick from time to time. Because of this we allot ourselves six paid sick days per year.
​
Personal Days we allot ourselves six paid personal days per year. we use these days for our continuing education classes (CPR, Pediatric First Aid, ect..) in order to keep our childcare license in good standing. Parents will be given as much of an advance notice as possible.
Vacations
We allot ourselves two-weeks of paid vacation a year. Parents will be given a notice well in advanced when paid vacations will be taken. Regular payment rates apply for your vacations, weeks with holidays, and provider's sick/personal days.
