Required Training and Resources for Staff
Here are all the resources, trainings, and certifications that we expect our staff to have completed within two weeks of having been hired before interacting with your children. We believe transparency is key to trust, and trust is a key component between parents and child care providers.
STAFF: When you have completed all of these forms and trainings, please reach out to Araceli Placensia to provide documentation of completion.
