About
Champions is a program that operates in schools or program locations that have safe, secure outdoor play spaces available at the school or program location. Outdoor play in the program is supervised and takes place only in these designated outdoor play spaces.
• Ages: 5–12 years old
• Schedule: Customer Care Department is available at 1-888-525-2780 between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m. (PST), Monday through Friday.
Champions states that the safety, security, and health of each child is a top priority, and describes itself as a safe, healthy place for children. Teachers and staff undergo extensive training on health and safety practices, including pandemic-response protocols, and they are trained in first aid and CPR. Teachers and staff members are trained in child development, early childhood education, or a related field, and criminal background checks are conducted for staff.
Champions follows local health department guidelines and the guidance of the schools where it operates to take care of students, families, and communities. 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. Only pre-approved people with photo identification may pick up a child from the program. Each site has an emergency evacuation plan that is tested frequently, and an emergency plan and list of procedures are posted in each classroom.
All sites include smoke detectors and fire extinguishers, and cleaning supplies are locked safely out of reach of children. Staff and students practice frequent hand washing. Most sites offer breakfast, lunch, and snacks, with menus that satisfy applicable federal and state nutrition guidelines where meal service is provided. Champions may restrict which food items are served and brought into the site to accommodate those with food allergies.
Outdoor play is supervised and conducted only on safe, secure outdoor play spaces available at the school or program location. Staff are regularly trained on safety measures related to field trips or off-site activities, and families must provide permission before a child participates in a field trip or off-site activity. Champions has strict policies for administering medication, including requiring a doctor’s note for any medication for children under the age of 2.
The National Support Center has a crisis team that supports each center during and after emergencies. If a center must temporarily close due to an emergency, the crisis team works with center management to update families and staff on reopening. Champions Family Support can be contacted at 1-800-246-2154 for current families, and the Customer Care Department can be reached at 1-888-525-2780 between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m. (PST), Monday through Friday. Parents planning to enroll can search for a Champions location near their child’s school.
Families are asked to refrain from posting photos or videos that contain images of children other than their own on the Internet. There is an Ethics Support Line hosted by a third-party hotline provider, EthicsPoint, at 1-844-889-4478, and reports can be submitted online at KinderCare.EthicsPoint.com.
