DROP OFF & PICK UP
Membership cards must be presented when
dropping off and picking up your child.
The person dropping off must be the person
picking up. If it is necessary for an individual
other than yourself to pick up your child,
please provide the person’s name on a written
authorization form to a Kids Korner team
member upon drop off. As an added security
measure your photo is linked to your Kids
Korner pass number and can be seen by team
members when checking in. If your child has
an allergy or other restrictions, we ask that you
inform a Kids Korner team member each time
you drop off your child.
PARENTAL RESPONSIBILITIES
Parents must remain in the club while their
child is in the facility. We ask that parents limit
their time spent within Kids Korner to avoid
disrupting the other children. Arriving a few
minutes early allows time for transition and
gives our team members a chance to gather
any necessary information about the child.
We also request that children wear a clean
diaper when dropped off at Kids Korner.
Kids Korner visits are limited to a 2 hour
maximum per child per day.
ACCLIMATION
The Kids Korner team members will work
with children through the difficult stage of
separation anxiety. If a child is new to Kids
Korner, or at the peak of separation anxiety we
recommend starting off with a shorter visit.
If a child experiences a difficult time and
cannot be consoled within approximately 10
minutes, the parent will be called. After several
visits, most children become assimilated and
enjoy Kids Korner.
PERSONAL BELONGINGS
Upon arrival please label all diaper bags,
bottles and sippy cups. Labels will be provided
for those items not already labeled. Please
bring diapers and a change of clothing for any
child who is not fully potty trained.
INFANTS
Infants age six weeks and older are welcome
in Kids Korner. We request reservations for
infants and babies under 1 year, or until
walking comfortably, to ensure appropriate
supervision. We are happy to assist in feeding
bottles to infants if needed. Upon arrival
we ask parents to provide our staff with any
instructions regarding your infant. Feedings
will be given as close as possible to the time
requested by parent. If Kids Korner staff is
unable to meet feeding time requests,
parents will be called for assistance.

BEHAVIOR
When behavior issues or problems arise
that may cause harm to the child or other
children, the Kids Korner team member will
use time-outs to remove the child from
the situation. A team member will sit and
discuss the behavior with the child before
or after the time out period. If we are
unsuccessful in calming a child, parents will
be called asked to remove him/her from Kids
Korner. When disruptive behavior becomes
a pattern, we ask that the child be scheduled
during less busy times in order to provide
smaller group and more one-on-one attention.
ILLNESS
Sick children may infect others and are
not permitted in the Kids Korner. If a child
appears to be sick, we may ask the parent
to remove the child from Kids Korner. Please
refer to our separate “Kids Korner Sick
Children Regulations” for detailed information
pertaining to illness.
SAFETY
Visitors, including relatives and friends of
members, are not permitted in Kids Korner.
Unauthorized adults may not remove children
from Kids Korner. Our Kids Korner team is CPR/
First Aid/AED certified.
