In her own words

Four passages from the policies the provider wrote herself, exactly as she wrote them, in English and in Spanish.

Philosophy

My philosophy is that all children should be treated with respect. All children have the right to safe, healthy, nurturing care and opportunities for developmental activities appropriate to their ages, special needs, talents, and interests.

Colores de Esperanza, in the provider's own words

Mission

My goal is to provide your child with a clean, safe, comfortable environment in which to play and learn with the proper counseling and special care while you are at work or attending school.

Colores de Esperanza, in the provider's own words

Behavior and guidance

Your child’s personal rights will be respected by using behavior guidance that is fair, reasonable, and suited to the age of the child. This includes natural and logical consequences and redirection to guide their behavior. Corporal (spanking) or verbal punishment will not be allowed or tolerated.

Colores de Esperanza, in the provider's own words

If a child keeps hitting, biting or breaking toys, you will be asked to meet and agree a plan together, which may bring in extra support for your child's social and emotional well-being.

Hygiene, health and safety

Our home emphasizes strict cleanliness and hygiene standards. Children’s hands are washed before and after meals, coming in from outside and after toileting.

Colores de Esperanza, in the provider's own words

The house is smoke-free, as state law requires during care hours. There is no swimming pool; a wading pool comes out in the warm months. There is a small dog in the home.

House policies

The short version. The full text is in the parent handbook, which you read together and sign at enrollment.

Sick children stay home
Children who may be contagious stay home: fever, vomiting, diarrhea, a severe cough, flu, a swollen neck, an unexplained rash, pink eye, chickenpox, head lice, scabies or hand-foot-and-mouth disease. After a fever, a child comes back only after 24 hours without fever and without fever medicine. After vomiting twice or more in a day, 24 hours after it stops.
If your child gets sick or hurt here
You will be called to come and collect them. For a serious injury, 911 is called first, and then you.
Medication
Prescription and over-the-counter medicines, ointments and creams can be given when needed, once you have filled in the form, in the original container labeled with your child's name.
Immunizations
State law requires an immunization record for every child in licensed care. Keep your child's shots up to date and give us a current copy.
Who may collect your child
Only you and the people named on your emergency card. Anyone else needs your written permission in advance. If a court order keeps a parent away, a written note saying so from the custodial parent must be on file here; without it, that parent cannot be stopped at the door.
Car seats
Children come and go in a proper car seat. If an adult arrives without one, or under the influence of alcohol or drugs, someone on the emergency card is called to collect the child, or a taxi is called for the adult and child at the adult’s cost, or the adult goes home and comes back with a car seat. If none of these is accepted, the police are called.
Emergencies and disasters
There are written plans for fire, flood, earthquake and other emergencies, and the children practice drills.
Photos
Your child is photographed only with your written permission. Photos are shared only with enrolled families, in the parent portal, and you can ask Lety for a copy of any photo of your child.
Privacy
Records and information about your child and family stay private and confidential unless you give written permission to share them.
Mandated reporting
The provider is required by law to report any suspected physical, emotional or sexual abuse or neglect. If you suspect a child here is being mistreated, tell her immediately; you may also report it to Community Care Licensing or child welfare services.
Everyone is welcome
No family is refused care because of race, color, sex, creed, religion, age, disability, national or ethnic origin, sexual orientation, public assistance status or medical condition, as long as the program can meet the child’s needs with reasonable accommodations.
Concerns and complaints
Bring any concern to the provider as soon as possible. If a serious complaint is not being addressed, you may contact the home's licensing analyst at Community Care Licensing.
