Drop-In Procedures
Reservations should be made via e-mail at pattonf@prumc.org.  Church members may reserve childcare spots one month in advance, while non-members may reserve two weeks in advance.  All parents pay a yearly registration fee in June.  There is a 2 hour minimum charge per day for infants, and a 2 ½ hour minimum per day for all others.  Infants may attend 2 day per week; children in the toddler and older rooms may attend 3 days per week.  We do not take standing reservations; however, we do keep a wait list for each day.

Please bring an extra set of clothing for each child.  If diapers are necessary pack at least 3 disposables.  Also, include a no-spill cup or bottle if your child cannot drink from a paper cup.  Label everything including pacifiers, cups, bottles, diapers, extra clothes, jackets, etc.  Please be sure that your child arrives in a clean diaper, and our staff will be sure he/she leaves in one.

Children will only be released to the parents or a designated caregiver.  Every child must be free of fever, colds, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, rash, on-going cough, runny nose, runny eyes, etc. for 24 hours before attending Drop-In.
