The purpose of this contract is to outline the policies and procedures under which I operate as a Daycare Provider. I give the children in my care opportunities to learn in a family like setting with mixed age groups, where they can feel safe and love and can begin to build a positive self-image. Your child will receive quality personal and individualized care in a warm and loving home. Your questions and comments are important so we can achieve the very best experiences for your child.
