Our Response to COVID-19

Home » Our Response to COVID-19

The safety and health of our children and staff has always been a priority at Akal Child Care. Upon re-opening our Centre in July 2020, we have implemented numerous safety and sanitizing protocols in order to reduce the risk of COVID-19 transmission. Due to the fluidity of the COVID-19 Pandemic, we ensure that our entire team is well aware of COVID-19 protocols, and we ensure that our staff continue to be trained and updated when guidelines from Peel Public Health and the Ministry of Education are modified. We take pride in knowing that we have exceeded COVID-19 guidelines from Peel Public Health and the Ministry of Education, while our children are still in a rich, stimulating and fun environment.

Some of the new protocols that have been implemented are as follows:

Daily Health Screening of all children and staff entering the Centre for symptoms of illness. Children are also monitored throughout the day for any symptoms of illness, including regular temperature checks.
We have added DYSON HEPA Air Purifiers to all of our classrooms, which help to reduce airborne contaminants, including viruses.
Frequent handwashing for children and staff has been built into the Daily Schedule, along with disinfection of high touch surfaces and toys multiple times throughout the day.
Toys and equipment are regularly disinfected in all of our classrooms.

*Please note this is not an exhaustive list of all our additional protocols and we will update/amend protocols based on guidance from Peel Public Health and the Ministry of Education.

As we implement the new guidelines, things will look different (i.e., our teachers will be wearing masks and eye protection, toys that cannot be easily cleaned have been removed from our classrooms, etc.). However, you can be rest assured that your children will continue to receive high quality child care in a very nurturing and loving environment.
