I’m New – FAQ’S

I’m New – FAQ’S

Where is the Children’s area?

Our Children’s area (midlandfreekids Discover) is located near the North Entrance of the building. When you enter from the north parking lot, you will see our Guest Check-in to the right.

How do I pick up my child?

Once you are registered and your child is checked in, you will receive adhesive name tags. These sticker name tags have a unique number that is displayed on your child’s name tag and yours. You will show this sticker upon entering the children’s area to pick up your child and again at your child’s classroom.

What if I lose my child’s nametag?

You will be asked to step to our check-in window and we will ask for your driver’s license or State ID. Once we can verify your name and that you are connected to the child, we will give you another name tag. Please understand this safety procedure is for the protection of all children. 

Who teaches the classes in the Children’s area?

All of our volunteers are required to go through a thorough background screening process to ensure the safety of all children.

Who can come into the Children’s area?

Any person with current pick up name tag for the children can enter the Children’s area.  The Children’s Area is closed during the service time, but the Safety4Kids Supervisors are always at the main child check-in to assist you.

What if my child has a medical condition or allergy?

At check-in we will ask if your child has an allergy or medical condition. The allergy will be listed on the name tag so that our teachers will be aware.

If your child has a Life Threatening Allergy or Medical Condition, such as a nut allergy (that requires an EPI pen) or asthma (that requires an inhaler), we ask that you fill out a form during check-in. This one-page form will be kept in our main Safety4Kids area and also in the classroom for the teacher. If you would like, please print and bring with you to save time at check-in.
