Parents provide formula, diapers and wipes. Facility provides bed sheets for infants who sleep in cribs and children who sleep on cots. Ill children will be isolated in the director’s office and will utilize the staff bathroom located inside the lobby. Cleaning supplies are inaccessible to children.
