Withdrawing from the SPROUT HOUSE AND SCHOOL AGED school
year program (not summer):
This can happen one of two ways:
1. Voluntarily by parents. Should you, for any reason, reconsider your child’s
enrollment at Sunflower Farm, you are required to give Sunflower Farm a 30-
day one full month notice. If you give your notice on or before the 1st of the
month, you will not be charged for the following month. If you give your notice
on the 2nd of the month or after you will be giving your notice for the next full
month. An example: If you give your notice on November 1st or before, you
will NOT be charged for December. If you give your notice on November 2 or
later, you WILL be charged for December and your notice is for January.
42. Should Sunflower Farm staff decide, for whatever reason, your child is not ready
or, perhaps, needs more than we are able to provide, we will contact you as soon
as possible to let you know our concerns and hopefully get your input before
giving a notice. It is our desire to work through these issues with utmost honesty
and support. If at any given time, Sunflower decides this is not a good fit, you
will be refunded all unused tuition, minus a 5% transaction fee.
Cancellation Policy:
Summer Camp: Otherwise, cancelling before May 1st, 2022, 75% refunds are available.
After May 1st, 50% refunds are available. No refunds are available 2 weeks prior to
enrolled session. An additional 5% Administrative fee will be deducted from all
refunds.
Force Majeure
In the event of an extraordinary event or circumstance beyond the control of Sunflower
Farm, such as an epidemic, natural disaster, flood, fire, tornado, war, strike or “Act of
God” that would prevent Sunflower Farm from operating their daily classes or camps,
parents or guardians, are required to pay 2 weeks tuition from the initial date of closure
for their scheduled classes or the remainder of their weekly camp.
Discipline:
Sunflower Farm staff uses the positive techniques of guidance, including logical or
natural consequences applied in problem situations, redirection of children to more
acceptable behavior, anticipation of and elimination of potential problems and
encouragement of appropriate behavior rather than comparison, shame, competition or
criticism. Consistent and clear rules are established. Staff members encourage the
children to solve the problems rather than imposing a solution. They help children to
recognize and respect each other’s feelings. The staff members encourage pro-social
behavior such as cooperation, helping, taking turns, and constructive verbal
communication to solve problems. The goal is to help children internalize rules and
become self-directed in their behavior. Sunflower Farm reserves the right to dismiss any
child due to circumstances that indicate the child’s needs can no longer be met. This will
occur only after parent / staff discussion.
Notifying parents of illnesses, accidents, and injuries:
Children showing signs of illness should not come to class. Parents will be contacted if
illness conditions are observed during the day. The director will assess the situation. If
there is an accident or injury, we will use the emergency contact information provided
to us upon registration to try to reach someone. Upon pickup, an accident report will be
5filled out and a copy kept on file. The child will be kept as safe and comfortable as
possible until picked up. If it is necessary to transport your child to a hospital we will
call 911 to assist transport and you will immediately be notified. Absences due to illness:
Please contact Emilie Hilgers if your child is ill or on vacation: 720-487-2562 or email
(emiliesunflowerfarmmail@gmail.com). Tuition refunds or credits are not available for
the day of the absence.
Lost Children and/or Other Emergencies:
All children are under direct supervision at all times. However, in the unlikely event
that we were unable to account for a child, we would (1) make a quick search of the area
(2) seek assistance from other adults to mount a search of the entire area and grounds
(3) close off entrance to the farm, and not let anyone in or out of the property until the
child has been located (4) notify a parent or other person on the Emergency Form and
(5) seek help from the police (at which point, within 48 hours, we will submit a written
report to the Colorado Department of Human Services.)
In the event of a natural disaster, Sunflower Farm will adhere to the following
procedures: In case of building fire: Staff members will evacuate children to an area well
away from the building. Teachers will take their sign-in sheet and attendance will be
taken in order to make sure that all children are accounted for.
In case of flood: Staff members will evacuate children to a high area well away from the
flood area. Parents will be notified by telephone as to the location of Preschoolers and
Sunflower staff will stay with these children until they can be picked-up. In the case of a
tornado: Staff members will evacuate and everyone will take shelter in the ditch along
Prospect Rd. or to lower ground nearby. In the case of extreme weather: Staff members
will take preschoolers to shelter in a pre-designated indoor area. Staff and children will
practice emergency drills on a regular basis.
Lock Down Procedure:
Lock door, close window treatments, gather children and emergency supply kit and
seek shelter in bathroom. Lock door.
Transporting children:
Children will not be transported anywhere off site (except for in emergency situations).
Evacuation: In case of the need to evacuate our site, the following procedures will be
followed:
Evacuation routes/exits:
Children are cared for at the Woodshed, there are two entrances. Exits (all windows and
doors are checked regularly to ensure opening): Notification: Once all children are
safely evacuated: 911 will be called. Parents will be notified of the evacuation
6Emergency Kits/Information:
• Emergency backpacks will be carried when outdoors.
• Each backpack will hold an envelope with each child’s emergency contact
information. Each teacher will carry a cell phone at all times.
Evacuation Sites:
Neighborhood (e.g., for fire): Marilyn Zabowski, 11130 Prospect Road, Longmont, CO
80504
Out-of-neighborhood (e.g., explosion, flooding):
Longmont Recreation Center, 310 Quail Rd, Longmont, CO 80501 Phone: (303) 774-4800
Field trips, television, video, and special activities:
Permission slips will be required for all special events, outings, field trips or special
photography.
Vehicle Use:
Children will not be transported anywhere, and vehicles are not used (except for
extreme emergency situations).
Releasing Children from the program:
To ensure the safety of each child and compliance with child-care licensing regulations,
parents/guardians are required to sign their child in and out daily. Persons designated
by the parent/guardian on the registration form may only pick up the child/ children.
If anyone other than those listed are to pick the child up, Sunflower Farm must be
notified in writing by the parent/guardian before the child can be released. In an
emergency, the child may also be released to an adult for whom the child’s parent or
guardian has given verbal authorization. If the staff member who releases the child does
not know the adult, identification must be required to assure the adult is authorized to
pick up the child. If the person is not listed, the staff member will not release the child
to that person. Any person(s) attempting to pick up a child will be asked to provide
photo ID. In the event an unauthorized person attempts to pick up a child they will be
asked to leave the facility. If the person does not leave the property the local law
enforcement will be contacted. At the conclusion of camp, staff verifies that all campers
have been signed out and that no one remains on site.
Drop off & Pick-up:
Sprout House Preschool
Drop-off is at 8:30am and 1:30 (school year afternoons). Pick-up is at 12:30pm and 4pm.
These times are very important to us at the farm, and we appreciate your compliance.
Staff uses the time before preschool to prepare for the day and the time afterward for
cleanup. The farm closes promptly 15 minutes after pick up time. Parents are asked to
7exit the farm right after drop-off and pick-up. Please do not come early to play, or linger
after pick- up. It is important to recognize Sunflower Farm is a private home as well as a
business. Let’s respect this boundary.
SproutHouse Summer Preschool & School-Aged Summer Program
Drop off is at 8:30 am. Pick up is at either 12:30 (half day) or 3pm (full day).
School Aged School Year
Drop off is at 9am and pick up is at 3:45pm.
In case of late pick-up, there is a late fee of $1.00/minute for every minute after 12:40pm
and 4:10 that the child/children remain at the farm. This rate is assessed per child. In
the event a child is not picked up and the parent does not contact Sunflower Farm, we
will notify each person on the authorized pick-up list until someone contacted can pick-
up the child. When none listed are available, a guardian cannot be reached, and it is
past 5pm, the police department and child protective services must be contacted. It is
our expectation that Sunflower Farm would be contacted in an emergency situation that
prevents a parent/guardian from promptly picking up a child to avoid the last step. At
the conclusion of camp, staff verifies that all campers have been signed out and that no
one remains on site.
Late Arrival:
Please be on time and thoughtful when dropping off your child. If you arrive after 8:45
or 1:45, and no one is present at the Sprout House facility, please make direct contact the
director/teacher before dropping off your child. DO NOT just drop off your child
unattended. When you cannot avoid being late, Please sign in your child with as little
disruption as possible.
Administering Medications:
Due to the length of the Sprout House program, it is very unlikely that standard
medications will need to be administered. Please plan to give any needed medicine
either before or after class time.
In order for your Preschooler to attend with emergency medications (such as an inhaler
or Epi-Pen), an “Emergency Medical Form” MUST be filled in and signed by a
physician. You may email the form to emiliesunflowerfarmmail@gmail.com prior to the
start of preschool, or you may bring it with you on the first day of preschool or upload
it to our Sawyer registration site. This form can be found as an attachment to the
confirmation email you received after registering your child. If this form is not
completed, Sunflower Farm WILL NOT be able to take the epi- pen or inhaler, or keep
them on site.
8Medications must be kept in the original labeled bottle or container. Prescription
medications must contain the original pharmacy label that lists:
Child's name
Prescribing practitioner's name
Pharmacy name and telephone number Date prescription was filled
Expiration date of the medication
Name of the medication
Dosage
How often to give the medication
Length of time the medication is to be given
Sunscreen & insect repellent
Parents are asked to apply sunscreen and insect repellent (if needed) to their children
before they arrive each day. Staff will assist and supervise children to reapply sunscreen
to children’s exposed skin prior to outdoor activities. If sunscreen is needed and a child
has not provided his or her own, the camp may provide sunscreen to be applied unless
there is written notice to the contrary from a parent or guardian. Children in the
program may apply sunscreen to themselves under direct supervision of a staff
member. Sunscreen must be labeled with the child’s first and last name.
Staff will carry medications in the field unless otherwise specified in writing on a Health
Care Plan in the case of inhalers or Epi-Pens.
All medication administration is undertaken in compliance with the Nurse Practice Act.
We are not allowed to apply ointments to wounds. In the rare case a wound requires
more than soap and water, we will call you to pick up your child.
Special Needs
Children with disabilities or developmental delays, including children with social,
emotional and behavioral needs, are admitted on a case-by-case basis and in alignment
with the training and ability of staff and in compliance with the Americans With
Disabilities Act. If needed the parent provider and a mental Health Consultant will
work together on persistent challenges. As a team we will identify an action plan to
support the child.
Conferences
Pick-up and Drop-off time provides brief periods of communication between staff and
parents. However, if you would like a more comprehensive exchange, please request a
private parent-teacher conference (usually in October or November) by emailing:
sunflowerfarmmail@gmail.com. Parent Teacher Conferences will be scheduled once a
year, and are optional usually in the spring.
9Confidentiality
The privacy of all families enrolled in the Sprout House is important to us. We keep all
information about children and their families strictly confidential; please do not ask any
questions that could be a breach of confidentiality, please speak directly with that
family.
Office
The office is an important source of information including the program’s licensing
certificate. In addition, lost and found items are collected in this space. Please take a
moment to look around to familiarize yourself with this area.

Colorado Department of Human Services; Childcare division.

insurance is also carried for substitute caregivers.

for their scheduled classes or the remainder of their weekly camp.

etc. will come out of clothing and/or shoes. All items must be clearly labeled with the
child’s first and last name. Money should not be brought to the program or kept in the
