Overview and Information about Palo Alto Daycare

Daycare Operational Guidelines in Palo Alto CA

Generally, before starting in a Palo Alto daycare program, parents must complete all paperwork and submit it prior or on the child's first day. Sometimes a Physicians Report may take longer to obtain, and a grace period (e.g. 30 days) may be provided if extra time is needed to arrange a doctor's appointment. The doctor's report will typically identify completed vaccinations, allergies and any conditions that will require special handling. For daycare in Palo Alto CA, if these forms are not completed it may result in your child's enrollment being suspended.It is important that parents keep their information up to date at the local Palo Alto daycare office. If you move, change jobs, or phone numbers, or if your emergency contacts should change phone numbers, please let the daycare office know. Parents should review their authorized pick up lists to ensure that it is current in the event that you send someone to pick up your child from a daycare in Palo Alto CA. Even if you send someone to pick up your child, you will have to call the daycare even if that person is on your child's emergency pick up list.
