SUN POLICY
We ask parent(s)/Guardians to leave a ‘sunny day bag’ with sun hats, sun glasses etc. in our service. All children will be required to wear a hat when playing outside in the sun. The service will encourage all children to wear clothes that provide good sun protection e.g. sun hats, sunglasses. The service will also encourage children to cover very exposed areas of the skin, such as shoulders.
We ask parent(s)/Guardians to bring in a labelled bottle of unopened sun-cream of at least 40 SPF. Staff will apply the sun-cream to children before they go outdoors.
I give permission for sun-cream to be applied to my child
from the labeled sun cream supplied. The sun cream will be applied in the correct way all over the body and in the correct amount. I will bring in an unopened and labelled bottle of sun-cream of at least 40 SPF.

CHILD PROTECTION
We have a moral and legal obligation to ensure that all children in our care are protected, and their health and welfare are safeguarded.
Our staff are mandated to report any concerns
All staff in the service are vetted through the Garda vetting unit and have the correct qualifications to work with children. We act to protect children from harm, which may arise. It is our duty in this case to question the cause of any behaviour, bumps, bruises or unusual markings. Our main concern in the service is to safeguard and protect the welfare of children. We have a responsibility to identify report and record any suspicions of child abuse to Tusla the Child and family Agency. We have a responsibility to respond to all child protection concerns.

Separated and Divorced Parents
Married parents are automatically joint guardians of their children. Neither separation nor divorce changes this.
By law, an unmarried mother is the automatic guardian of a child born outside of marriage. In some circumstances, unmarried fathers have automatic access. The service should be informed about access rights. Unmarried fathers will automatically become guardians of their children if they meet a cohabitation requirement. An unmarried father who cohabits for 12 months with the child's mother, including 3 months following a child's birth, will automatically become the child's guardian. This provision is not retrospective, so guardianship will only be acquired automatically where the parents live together for at least 12 months (applies to children born after 18 January 2016.)
- We cannot refuse either parent to collect their child unless a court order is in place.
- We ask that parents give us information on any person that does not have legal access to the child.
- Where custody of a child is granted to one parent, we would ask you to clarify the circumstances with us. This information will remain confidential and will only be made known to the relevant staff. If there is any legal documents i.e. custody order, barring order we would ask you to provide us with a copy to keep on file.
ALL ABOUT ME (THIS IS OPTIONAL)
We believe it is important to know as much as we can about a child before they start our service.
