Childcare Providers

As included on the ONET website for 39-9011.00 (Child Care Workers), the Child Care providers are to perform a variety of tasks/duties on behalf of the children within their assigned room. Providers will look after and spend time with preschool-aged children. Providers will help encourage and engage children in age-appropriate activities such as storytelling, singing, games, and guided play. Providers will read to children and guide them in simple painting, drawing, handicrafts, and songs. Providers will help children follow daily routines, encourage good behavior, and maintain order by supervising children to ensure they are safe at all times. Providers will assist in serving prepared meals/snacks provided by our facility cook. The cook will wash all food prep dishes/equipment in addition to sanitizing bottles/sippy cups after use. Our providers will ensure food safety during meals and follow health and safety guidelines, to include proper disposal of paper plates/plastic utensils. Our providers may handle laundry duties such as washing, drying, folding, and storing fitted sheets from room cots, cloth items (towels/blankets) from the baby room, and classroom soft materials such as clothes used for dressing up, plush toys and plush pillows used for sitting. Depending on scheduled time frame, a disinfectant machine, known as a Zono, is used to disinfect toys weekly.
