What to Bring to Daycare
Daily Items
- Bag: This bag must contain the appropriate contents depending on their needs. This includes diapers/pull-ups, wipes, extra clothing, baby food, formula/breastmilk, pacifier with holder, etc. The MS Health Department states that formula bottles must come pre-mixed and without baby cereal.
- Naptime: Infants are always allowed to sleep as needed but as the child grows there will be scheduled naptimes during their time at the center. In order for them to have a more restful nap they will need to bring a mat, pillow, and blanket. We will allow them to bring 1 (one) sleep toy that will help them sleep. You will be expected to bring your child’s blanket and pillow every Monday and take them home to wash every Friday. If you choose to pick up your child during their scheduled naptime, please call the childcare center and we will have your child ready for you so that the other children will not be disturbed.
Personal Belongings
Parents of infants and toddlers must provide diapers, wipes, change of clothing including underwear and socks. All these items must be provided in a labeled bag. An extra set of clothing must be sent for each child of all ages in a labeled bag to be left at the center. Wildwood Childcare Center will not be held responsible for ANYTHING lost, broken, or stolen.
Reminders will be sent home if diapers and wipes are needed or running low for your child. If your child runs out of diapers and wipes, we will send a daycare employee to purchase these items and your account will be charged for the amount spent on these items plus $10. If this becomes a habit, we will double the surcharge for each occurrence or drop your child from our preschool program.
