    Kids Korner

    Do you take reservations?
    No, but for infants 6-11 months old, please call ahead to ensure our maximum occupancy has not been met. It is a first come, first served facility and there are occasions that we meet our maximum.

    How old do children have to be?
    6 months old to 6 years old.

    Why don’t you allow snacks?
    Not all children come with snacks, so some may get upset. They’re only here for a short time, and we’d like to keep the room clean. Also, some children may be allergic to certain foods.

    Why don’t you change diapers?
    For sanitary purposes; we don’t have enough staff to provide that service for short-term care; and we don’t want to allow for any allegation of inappropriate conduct.

    Why can’t I leave the Recreation Center while you watch my child?
    We want to be able to reach you quickly in case of an emergency or if your child is uncomfortable in our care. We are not a licensed facility but function as a short-term care center.

    Can I bring my child something to drink?
    Yes, you may bring a bottle or sippy cup and we ask that you include the child’s name on it. We also provide water upon request.

    Why can’t I bring my child to Kids Korner if they’re just a little ill?
    We want to provide a germ-free environment for our guests as well as our staff members, and feel it provides a more positive experience for all.
