This manual outlines our behavior expectations, hygiene procedures, and disciplinary actions to ensure a positive and enjoyable experience for everyone involved.
Behavior Policy:
Respect: Treat program staff, fellow participants, and gym property with kindness and respect. Bullying, teasing, or any form of physical or verbal aggression is strictly prohibited.
Listening and Cooperation: Listen attentively to program staff and follow their instructions promptly. Participate in program activities with enthusiasm and cooperate with fellow participants.
Sharing and Consideration: Share toys, games, and resources with others, and take turns during group activities. Show consideration for others' feelings and belongings.
Safety Awareness: Follow safety rules and guidelines provided by program staff during activities. Walk instead of run, use equipment properly, and refrain from climbing on furniture or structures.
Cleanliness and Tidiness: Keep personal belongings organized and tidy. Dispose of trash in designated bins, clean up spills promptly, and contribute to maintaining a clean environment.
Hygiene Procedures:
Hand Washing: Wash hands with soap and water before and after meals, after using the restroom, and after messy activities. Encourage thorough handwashing for at least 20 seconds.
Covering Coughs and Sneezes: Use a tissue or elbow to cover coughs and sneezes, and dispose of tissues properly. Remind participants to avoid touching their faces with unwashed hands.
Personal Items: Encourage participants to avoid sharing personal items such as water bottles, utensils, or hats to prevent the spread of germs.
Restroom Etiquette: Use the restroom facilities appropriately and wash hands thoroughly afterward. Report any restroom cleanliness issues to program staff for prompt attention.
Food Safety: Follow food safety guidelines during snack and meal times. Avoid sharing food with other participants and notify program staff of any food allergies or dietary restrictions.
Disciplinary Actions:
Verbal Warning: Participants will receive a verbal warning for minor infractions of behavior or hygiene policies. Program staff will provide guidance on appropriate behavior and offer the participant a chance to correct their actions.
Time-Out: Continued disruptive behavior may result in a time-out period where the participant is temporarily removed from the group activity. During this time, the participant will have the opportunity to reflect on their actions.
Parent Notification: If behavior issues persist despite verbal warnings and time-outs, program staff will notify the participant's parents or guardians to discuss the situation and collaborate on a resolution plan.
Dismissal from program: In severe cases of repeated misconduct or safety concerns, participants may be dismissed from the program. This decision will be made in consultation with program management and communicated to the participant's parents or guardians.
Conclusion:
By adhering to our behavior policy, hygiene procedures, and disciplinary actions, we aim to create a positive, inclusive, and safe environment where children can learn, grow, and make lasting memories during our Mommy's Day Out Program.
