About
Champions is a program that states that education and development are important, and that the safety, security, and health of each child is a top priority. The program provides a secure, nurturing, and accessible environment, with specific safety and health practices in place for enrolled children.
• Ages: 5–12 years old
Teachers and staff at Champions undergo extensive training on health and safety practices, including pandemic-response protocols, and are trained in first aid and CPR. Staff and teachers are also trained in child development, early childhood education, or a related field, and criminal background checks are conducted for staff. Only authorized staff and families may enter sites, and all children must be signed in and out on a paper-based roster and/or computer system, with only pre-approved people with photo identification allowed to pick up a child from the program. All sites include smoke detectors and fire extinguishers, and cleaning supplies are locked safely out of children’s reach. Most sites offer breakfast, lunch, and snacks, with menus that satisfy applicable federal and state nutrition guidelines where meal service is provided, and Champions may restrict which food items are served and brought into the site to accommodate children with food allergies. All outdoor play is supervised and takes place only in safe, secure outdoor play spaces available at the school or program location, and staff are regularly trained on safety measures related to field trips or off-site activities. Families must provide permission before a child participates in a field trip or off-site activity. Champions has strict policies for administering medication and requires a doctor’s note for any medication for any child under the age of 2. Each site has an emergency evacuation plan that is tested frequently, and an emergency plan and list of procedures are posted in each classroom. The National Support Center has a crisis team that supports each center during and after emergencies, and if a center must temporarily close due to an emergency, the crisis team works with center management to update families and staff on when the center can re-open. Champions follows local health department guidelines and the guidance of the schools they operate in to take care of students, families, and communities. Current families can contact Champions Family Support at 1-800-246-2154, and current or former families can email [email protected]. Parents planning to enroll can use an online tool to find a Champions location near them, educators and administrators can contact Champions about bringing Champions to their school, and job seekers can learn more about careers at Champions and current job openings via a provided link. Ethics issues related to Champions can be reported via an Ethics Support Line at 1-844-889-4478 or online at KinderCare.EthicsPoint.com.
