,The Mayne Island Daycare Safety Plan outlines the strategies and measures put in place by the Mayne Island Early Childhood Society as we reopen the Mayne Island Daycare. This document details the important health, safety and scheduling procedures in place until further notice.
It is our intention to make the daycare a safe and welcoming place for children, staff and families as we move through the next months of the pandemic. We are confident in our ability to deliver quality programming that meets family need as well as our obligations under the following jurisdictions:
• The Provincial Health and Public Health Offices
• The Provincial Childcare Licensing Office
• The Ministry of Family and Child Development
• The Ministry of Education
• Worksafe BC
The daycare closed its doors on March 20th as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and associated concerns with the high risk of transmission among children, staff and families of the daycare. As we reopen, our plans have been formulated around the singular notion of balancing our ability to manage health risks and promote psychological well being for our children.
Maintaining an environment where children feel safe, supported and loved so that they continue to learn from each other and their environment, is our priority throughout this time. For these reasons, we have elected to make some changes to our program.
