Late Policy

We understand that occasional excused lateness due to traffic or personal reasons may occur. However, repetitive unexcused lateness will result in a financial penalty. Children remaining on the premises 15 minutes past the end of class will be brought to the Director’s office for pick-up. If a parent or caregiver has not arrived or staff are unable to contact them within 15 minutes, emergency contacts will be called for pickup. If an hour has elapsed with no pickup or communication, you will be fined $75.

If you know that a late pick-up may occur, please inform the Nature Center by phone at 203-655-7459.
