Health & Safety

At Star City Early Learning Academy, the health and safety of all children and teachers is our top priority. We adhere to the highest standards of cleanliness and hygiene to create a safe learning environment for everyone. Our facility is equipped with child-proof features, and we conduct regular safety inspections to ensure that all areas meet stringent safety guidelines.

Teachers are trained in emergency procedures and health protocols, allowing them to respond swiftly and effectively in any situation. We also promote healthy habits among children, encouraging proper handwashing, healthy eating, and regular physical activity as part of our daily curriculum.

Together, we foster a secure atmosphere where children can thrive and educators can teach with confidence.

Indoor and Outdoor Play

Indoor and outdoor play are essential components of a child's development at a child care center. Engaging in both types of play fosters creativity, enhances physical skills, and supports social interaction. Indoor play areas stimulate imagination through constructive play, arts, and pretend scenarios, providing a safe environment for children to explore and express themselves. Meanwhile, outdoor play promotes physical health, coordination, and teamwork, allowing children to connect

Communicable Diseases

Staff members are trained in the signs and symptoms of illnesses and in proper hand washing procedures to prevent the spread of communicable disease.

You will be called to remove your child if any of the following symptoms exist:

  • vomiting

  • severe coughing

  • temperature of 100 or higher

  • diarrhea

  • suspicious rash

  • difficult or rapid breathing

  • lice (may only return when deemed “nit free”)

  • red, encrusted, or runny eyes

  • lethargic behavior

Immunizations and Physical Exam

  • Every child must be current on immunizations and have verification of a physical exam (well child check-up) within the 12 months prior or 30 days from admission date. These records must be provided prior to your child’s first day of attendance.

  • If your child receives new immunizations and/or has an updated physical, please update the record on file in the office.

  • Immunizations exemptions for medical or religious reasons must have proper documentation on file to be approved by a state consultant.
