Each child will have access to the washroom and/or will be diapered regularly.

 

Diapering

 

Children who are not yet toilet trained will require wipes, any necessary diaper cream and diapers

which shall be housed in a labeled container in the child’s bathroom. If any diaper or over-the-

counter creams are required written directions must be received and kept on file. It is the parent’s

choice whether to provide cloth or disposable diapers. Please be advised that due to public health

guidelines, we will not be able to shake or rinse cloth diapers at the centre. All cloth diapers will

be contained in an individually labeled container to be taken home each evening by parents.

We have approximately five diaper change routines per day. This does not include unexpected

changes. We do not supply diapers - please ensure that your child has enough diapers on hand to

make it through the day in a safe and hygienic manner. If we do not have enough diapering

materials on hand to meet your child’s washroom needs, you will be called. You will need to

either arrange delivery of the required diapers or you will be required to come and pick your little

one up.

 

Please note that all diapers are required to be covered by clothing. If your little one is

being sent to the centre in a dress or outfit that does not cover the diaper completely you

are required to cover the diaper with any of the following choices: plastic pants, leggings

or tights, cloth underwear or shorts.

 

Toilet Training

 

Children who are toilet training will need a supply of labelled training pants. As well as a

larger supply of clothing including extra socks and a second pair of shoes/slippers will be

needed. It is important to keep clothing comfortable and easy for the child to remove

independently. (Overalls, tights/leggings, and multiple buttons can be frustrating at this

stage). Staff and parents will work closely and consistently to ensure the training goes

successfully and positively. Please be advised that due to guidelines we will not be

allowed to shake or rinse training pants at the centre. All training pants will be contained

in a plastic bag or an individually labelled container to be taken home each evening by

parents. Parents will be involved in all steps taken in the toilet training process. We are

working together to help your child through this milestone.
