Immunizations: We follow the Idaho Child Care Immunization Law, which requires that children be up-to-date on their immunizations to attend child care. Immunization records are required at the time of registration. Copies of all updated immunizations are also required.
Security: We believe that providing a safe and secure environment goes hand-in-hand with a child’s ability to develop. As a safeguard, when picking up a child, we require that all authorized individuals be prepared to show ELC staff a photo ID upon request.
Meals and Snacks: Iron formula and commercial baby food are provided for infants. Breakfast, lunch and an afternoon snack are provided for all other children through the Child and Adult Care Food Program of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). All food is prepared by Chartwell’s Food Service.

Persons with disabilities who require alternative means of communication for program information (e.g. Braille, large print, audiotape, American Sign Language, etc.), should contact the Agency (State or local) where they applied for benefits.
