Immunization Policy

As you may have heard, Colorado has new requirements for school and child care-required immunizations.

While a medical exemption for those children who cannot be vaccinated and a nonmedical exemption for those who choose not to vaccinate remains an option for Colorado families, the new law makes the following changes:

 

  • Parents and caregivers claiming a medical exemption from vaccination for their child must have a completed certificate of medical exemption with the signature of a healthcare provider. Medical exemptions only need to be submitted once, unless the student’s information or school changes.

  • If a parent or caregiver chooses not to have their child vaccinated, they may claim a nonmedical exemption in one of two ways:

    • Submit the official Certificate of Nonmedical Exemption with the signature of an immunizing provider (such as a medical doctor, advanced practice nurse, pharmacist, etc.) OR

    • Submit the official Certificate of Nonmedical Exemption  received upon completion of CDPHE’s Online Immunization Education Module.

 

Note: Nonmedical exemptions for preschool or child care must be submitted at 2, 4, 6, 12, and 18 months of age. These exemptions expire when the next vaccines are due or when a child enrolls in Kindergarten. Nonmedical exemptions for school-aged children must be submitted annually and expire on June 30th of each year.
 

  • If a student exempts from one or more school-required vaccines for either medical or nonmedical reasons, the appropriate exemption form, as described above, must be on file with their school. The certificate was standardized to include the collection of information necessary in the event of a disease outbreak in our community. 

  • All immunizing health care providers are required to report both immunizations and exemptions to the Colorado Immunization Information System (CIIS). Parents and caregivers retain the right to opt their child out of CIIS.

Parents or guardians sign their children in when they arrive and out when they are picked up. The sheet will include the child's name, date, arrival and departure times, and the parent or guardian's signature.

  • Staff verification. Each child has an assigned staff member who knows where the child is at all times.

Staff periodically verify attendance throughout the day.

  • Sign-out log review

Before staff leave for the day, they review the sign-out log to ensure that all children have been picked up.

  • Missing child protocol

If a child is missing, staff will try to locate them and immediately notify the authorities and parent(s) or guardian(s).

We also have a working phone number that is available to the public and to staff at all times. (970-364-6627) The center will post emergency telephone numbers near the phone, including 911, a hospital, and the local police, fire, and health departments. 

 

 

Procedure on Positive Guidance, Behavior Expectations, Positive Instruction, Supporting Positive Behaviors, As Well As The Strategies & Techniques For Supporting Children With Challenging Behaviors

 

We have a childcare procedure based on positive guidance focuses on setting clear expectations, actively reinforcing positive behaviors, and using supportive strategies to address challenging behaviors, primarily by teaching children what to do rather than focusing on what not to do, while building strong relationships with each child to understand their individual needs and promote healthy development; key strategies include modeling appropriate behavior, providing choices when possible, redirecting negative behaviors, and actively listening to children's concerns. 

Our Core Principles of Positive Guidance: 

  • Focus on the positive:

Highlight and praise desired behaviors, rather than dwelling on negative actions. 

  • Clear expectations:

Communicate rules and routines in a simple, positive way, ensuring children understand what is expected of them. 

  • Individualized approach:

Recognize each child's unique needs and adjust strategies accordingly. 

  • Relationship building:

Foster strong connections with children to better understand their behaviors and provide support. 

  • Active listening:

Pay attention to children's verbal and nonverbal cues to address underlying concerns. 

Our Key Strategies for Positive Instruction and Supporting Positive Behaviors: 

  • Modeling appropriate behavior:

Demonstrate the desired behavior through your own actions. 

  • Positive reinforcement:

Use verbal praise, high fives, or other positive rewards to acknowledge good behavior. 

  • Choice-giving:

Offer children options within reasonable limits to promote autonomy and self-regulation. 

  • Visual cues:

Utilize visual aids like pictures or charts to support understanding of expectations. 

  • "I" statements:

Use "I" statements to express concerns in a calm and respectful manner, such as "I feel frustrated when toys are thrown." 

  • Redirecting behavior:

Gently guide a child towards a more appropriate activity when exhibiting challenging behavior. 

Our Strategies for Supporting Children with Challenging Behaviors: 

  • Identify triggers:

Observe and understand what situations or environmental factors may contribute to challenging behaviors. 

  • Provide sensory breaks:

Offer calming activities like deep breathing exercises or quiet spaces when needed. 

Create a personalized plan with specific strategies tailored to the child's needs. 

  • Collaborate with parents:

Maintain open communication with parents to discuss concerns and develop consistent approaches at home and in childcare. 

  • Teach coping skills:

Help children learn strategies to manage their emotions, such as deep breathing, counting, or self-talk. 

  • Positive time-out:

Provide a designated area for a brief period of calm reflection when necessary, focusing on redirection rather than punishment. 

 

 

Our Examples of Positive Guidance Phrases: 

  • "Thank you for sharing your toys!" 

  • "I see you are using your walking feet inside." 

  • "Let's try taking turns with the blocks." 

  • "It looks like you are feeling frustrated, can we talk about what's happening?" 

  • "You can choose to play with the cars or the dolls." 

  • We will implement positive guidance strategies consistently across the childcare setting. 

  • We will Ensure all staff members are well-trained in positive guidance techniques. 

  • Documentation and observation: We will Regularly monitor children's behavior to identify patterns and adjust strategies as needed. 

 

Policies & Procedures Concerning Suspension, Expulsion, or Requests To Parent(s) or Guardian(s) To Withdraw A Child From Care Due To Concerns About The Child’s Behavioral Issues.

 

We always give a free week trial in our afterschool program to make sure the child is a good fit for our program and that our program is a good fit for the child before we charge any money.

If we do not feel it is a good fit at the end of the first week we will seek advice from our mental health consultant and/or at our own discretion notify the parent of our decision to not allow the child to formally enroll the child into the program at that time.

If we find that we have enrolled a child in our program that has behavioral issues that are not consistent with the overall well being of the rest of our children we will contact the parent(s) or guardian(s) and ask for written permission to involve our mental health consultant.

If parent(s) or guardian(s) are unwilling to give permission then the child will be expelled from the program.

If the parent(s) or guardian(s) are willing to give written permission to involve our mental health consultant, we will reach out to our consultant and follow their direction.

If we are unable, through consultations and recommendations with parents and mental health consultant to correct the disruptive behaviors we will expel the student from our program at our own discretion.

The procedure, including notification of parent(s) or guardian(s), for handling children's illnesses, accidents, and injuries, including when children will be excluded from care and notification of parent(s) or guardian(s).

 

  • Notification

We will notify parents in writing of all illnesses, accidents, and injuries on the same day they occur, unless the situation requires immediate attention. For accidents, we will give parents enough time to ask questions and understand the situation. We will also provide parents with a copy of the incident report and have them sign it to indicate that they've discussed it. 

  • Reporting

We will complete an online injury report within 24 hours of an incident. If the online system isn't accessible, we will use a paper form and submit it to the Division of Early Learning and Licensing Administration (DELLA) within 24 hours. 

  • Local Child Protective Services

We may need to notify local Child Protective Services in certain situations, such as unexplained injuries, injuries that weren't witnessed by an adult, or near drowning. 

  • Written authority

We will obtain written authority from parents or guardians to arrange for medical care in an emergency. 

  • Exclusion

State regulations usually specify when children should be excluded from child care. We will consider whether a child's illness prevents them from participating in activities comfortably or if the staff's ability to care for the child would be compromised and notify parent(s) or guardian(s) immediately.

 

Our procedures including notification of parent(s) or guardian(s) when a child is separated from their group and is not under the direct supervision of their assigned staff member or for whom the local authorities have been contacted

 

When a child is separated from their group and is not under the direct supervision of their assigned staff member, or if local authorities have been contacted, our procedures involve immediately notifying the child's parent(s) or guardian(s) via phone call, followed by a written report documenting the incident, the steps taken to locate the child, and any actions taken by staff to address the situation.

Key elements of the notification process: 

  • Immediate contact:

Staff will attempt to contact the parent(s) or guardian(s) as soon as possible after discovering the child is missing.

  • Detailed information:

The notification will include the child's location, the time of separation, the circumstances surrounding the incident, and the steps being taken to locate the child.

  • Follow-up communication:

After initial contact, staff will provide regular updates to the parent(s) or guardian(s) until the child is safely reunited with them. 

 

  • Emergency situations:

If the child is missing for an extended period or there are concerns about their safety, emergency services may be contacted in addition to notifying the parents. 

  • Documentation:

A detailed incident report will be completed, including the time of separation, actions taken by staff to locate the child, who was notified, and any relevant details about the incident.

The procedure for transporting children, if applicable, including children’s safety related to riding in a vehicle; seating, supervision, and emergency procedures on the road; transportation arrangements; and parental permission for excursions and related activities

 

  • Safety

We will Ensure children are safe by using the proper car seats or child restraint systems for their age and weight. If a child needs to use a lap belt, use a child restraint with a built-in harness or a booster seat with the lap belt. We will also teach children to wear seat belts, stay seated, and only get in or out of the vehicle at the curb or an off-street location. 

  • Supervision

If we are transporting children on a bus, we will plan where we will sit so we can see and hear all children. We will follow the same ratio of monitors to children as teachers to students in the classroom.

The procedure for caring for children who arrive late to the center and their class/group is away from the center on a field trip or excursion

 

When a child arrives late to a childcare center while their class is on a field trip, the staff will immediately contact the field trip leader to inform them of the late arrival, securely transition the child to a designated staff member who will then safely transport them to the field trip location, ensuring the child is properly supervised and accounted for until they join the group; this may involve coordinating with the transportation provider if necessary to meet the child at a designated location. 

Key steps in this procedure: 

  • Receive the late arrival:

Upon the child's arrival, greet them and confirm their identity.

  • Contact the field trip leader:

Immediately call or text the person leading the field trip to inform them about the late arrival and get instructions on where to meet the child.

Assign a designated staff member to stay with the child until they are transported to the field trip location.

  • Safe transportation:

Arrange for transportation to the field trip location, whether it's by staff vehicle or coordinating with the transportation provider already used for the group.

  • Meet the group:

Ensure the staff member accompanying the late child meets the field trip leader at a designated rendezvous point to hand over the child.

  • Communication with parents:

Inform the parents of the late arrival and the steps taken to get the child to the field trip location. 

Important considerations: 

  • Child safety:

Prioritize the child's safety by ensuring they are always supervised and accounted for during the transition process.

  • Clear communication:

Maintain clear and timely communication with the field trip leader to avoid confusion.

If child is transported to center by parent, and center is not open, and staff is not at center to receive the child, the child shall not be dropped off by parent. Parent shall deliver the child to the location of the group and properly check child in with staff.
