Child Care Center Policies

Payments

Payments to the "Board of Regents" may be made by check or money order. There is a $25 charge for returned checks.

Termination

The center reserves the right to terminate the enrollment of any child. Detailed information can be found in the family handbook.

Illness

If your child shows signs or symptoms of illness, he/she will be sent home. Please make sure you have alternative care for your child in case of an emergency.

Outdoor Play

Unless the weather is extremely severe, we will go outside for much needed fresh air and large motor play. If your child is too ill to go outside, they should be kept home.

Rest Time

The children have a rest period each day. Please provide a familiar cuddly blanket to help soothe a restless body.

Family Involvement

Family involvement is a crucial link between the child's home and school. Our open-door policy encourages parents to be part of their child's care and education.

Nutrition

Parents provide the child's lunch. The center provides a morning and afternoon snack. Due to Health Department regulations, food provided by parents for special occasions such as birthdays must be store-purchased or prepared at the center.

The center is grateful for a federal subsidy that provides free milk to all of the children who are enrolled at the Child Care Center regardless of race, color or national origin. In accordance to U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) as well as Nevada Department of Agriculture (NDA), civil rights regulations and policies TMCC Child Care Center, will not tolerate discrimination of any kind such as; race, disabilities, religion, sex, age political beliefs, or reprisal or retaliation for prior civil rights activity in any program or activity conducted or funded by USDA.

Wait Lists

Wait list priority goes to military families (per Nevada Senate Bill 326), and families currently enrolled in the Center. Enrollment is dependent on availability.
