General care
At Kora Childcare Centre, a child’s safety is important to us. So, we trained our team to be aware of children’s health and safety.
- Upon the enrolment we ask some questions regarding your child’s allergies and dietary requirements. Base on the information given by families we create a list and provide it to the room. As a result, every member of our team knows exactly what every child is able to eat.
- Every team member has access to the children’s information regarding dietary requirement, allergenic, cultural, and medical requirements.
- Our entrance is monitored all the time by one of our team members to keep record of everyone arriving at our center.
- We will not release your child to anyone without your written permission.
- All team members have current Working With Children Check.
- We apply sunscreen to children before going outside and reapply again after 2 hours.
