Frequently Asked Questions
do you offer carpooling or bridge care?
If you are interested in carpooling with other parents let me know and I can help coordinate. I can offer bridge care to a maximum of 4 kids (if one child is able to be in the front seat, if not then 3). Reach out if this is something you might need.
are start times flexible?
Yes. We will have a ‘soft start’ with introductory activity at the beginning of clubs and camps. Soft start is a 30 minute window after the listed start time of choice time/free play unless otherwise noted. Please let me know if you need to arrive early.
what if i can't pick up my child until after the end time?
Reach out and I’ll see what I can do to meet your scheduling needs.
what is your cancellation policy?
If you need to cancel a program before the start date for any reason, you’ll recieve full credit for a future program.
For refunds to original payment, 80% will be refunded if it’s over a week before the start of the program. Within 1 week it will be 50%.
If programming has begun, a prorated Sprouts credit will be given if a family needs to cancel the rest of the program for any reason.
If Sprouts programming makes the call to cancel due to illness or inclement weather: a make up date will be offered or a Sprouts credit will be given.
will you have a first aid kit?
I will keep first aid with me at all times. I am First Aid and CPR trained and certified. Please let me know if your child has any particular allergies.
what does my child need to bring?
Water bottle
Bug spray
Sunscreen
Hat
I always recommend bringing a rain jacket and waterproof/mud proof shoes. An extra change of clothes is recommended just in case. I will keep extra clothing on hand in case of emergencies.
ARE SNACKS PROVIDED?
After school clubs will always have a snack provided. Camps will also include an afternoon snack. Please bring a morning snack and lunch for full day camps. Please note any dietary restrictions or preferences when you register.
what if the weather is bad?
If it’s raining and there is a shelter at the park we will still have our session. If there is thunder and lighting we will wait 30 minutes in the shelter and if the storm continues we will move to the closest public library. There will also be the option to pick up early. If the ‘real feel’ temperature is under 20 degrees or above 95 degrees we will typically reschedule, but families will be involved in the process.
why the broad age range?
Sprouts programs are open to kids from ages 5 through 12. I have found that when kids of a variety of ages work together there is collaboration, mentorship and growth. Activities such as cooking and gardening are well suited for kids of all ages. Once someone masters a skill, then helps another learn, it helps develop teamwork, confidence and cooperation.
