Frequently Asked Questions

More

Due to the increase in illnesses during this time of year and the difficulty of avoiding their spread in a day care setting, it is important to familiarize yourself with Harbor Athletic Club Kids Club health policy.

Children will NOT be admitted to Kids Club if …

  • They have been kept home from school, preschool, daycare, extracurriculars, or playgroup for any health related reason or injury (includes recovering/lethargy).
  • They have had a fever (temp > 100.4), diarrhea, or vomiting the past 36 hours. 
  • They have yellow or green mucus coming from the nose or eyes, a continuously runny nose, or a constant/severe cough.
  • They have been on antibiotics for less than 36 hours (strep throat, pink eye, impetigo, etc).
  • They have an unexplained rash or hand/foot/mouth in the past 48 hours.
  • They have untreated and/or contagious lice, ringworm, or scabies.
  • They have tested positive for COVID-19 (please follow latest CDC guidelines for testing, exposure, and isolation rules).

If your child develops any of these symptoms, he or she must be picked up and removed from Kids Club immediately.

Please understand that while it is not possible to completely eliminate the spread of illness, adherence to these policies will greatly reduce the spread of germs and keep everyone healthier and happier. If your child is sick, they can potentially expose many other children and/or staff which will cause others to miss classes, and/or work. Please be respectful to others by adhering to this policy.

The above policies apply to everyone and will be enforced without exception.

Please direct any questions you may have to Kali Alexander via email (kali@harborathletic.com) or ask the staff on duty.
