16 To ensure the safety of all children and due to staffing ratios in our infant rooms it is required that the parent abide by their times of care. If you should need to change their times of care, they will need to give the daycare 2 weeks notice before putting this into place. Children will not be released to persons other than the parents and anyone on the authorization form, photo identification is required. In the event that any authorized person picking up a child is intoxicated or is deemed unsafe in any way, staff are instructed to arrange for an alternate authorized person. If staff is unsuccessful in doing so, the Greater City of Sudbury Police Dept. and the Children’s Aid Society will be contacted. Transportation Staff will not be able to release a child to any unauthorized volunteer CAS or taxi drivers. Taxi drivers must show photo identification at pick up. Closure due to Weather When weather dictates closure of Sudbury Transit services, the Centre will be closed. The parents are responsible for listening to social media for these announcements. If closure occurs during the day, parents will be contacted immediately to pick up their children.
