Honor the confidentiality of the children and staff members. Never use names in any reports, or discuss specific children and their families outside of center. When discussing a child with a staff member, remember that your conversation could be overheard and your words misunderstood. Don't forget that children have feelings too. Never use derogatory words with regards to the children or their families.
Every child is worthy of respect.
Never contact children or their families outside of center without prior permission or instruction from a staff member. Under no circumstances will a child leave the center with someone other than his or her parent or legal guardian. The only exception is when prior permission has been given or there is a medical emergency. Never transport a child in your private vehicle. Any necessary transportation will be provided by the program.
