Health & Safety Home / About Us / Health & Safety Why Families Trust Merryhill Preschool Henderson Trust is built through consistency, and at Merryhill Preschool Henderson, that means showing up every day with the same commitment to health and safety. We follow comprehensive practices and stay current with guidance from local and state health departments to protect every student and staff member in our care. Secure Campus, By Design Only registered families, staff, and approved visitors may enter our building. Every visitor checks in at the front desk, presents ID, and wears a badge throughout their visit. Families provide prior authorization for pick-up, and we always check ID and confirm the approved pick-up list. Sick Policy Our sick policy is simple: if a child feels sick in the morning, please keep them home to rest and recover. If illness strikes during the school day, we care for the child right away and call you to arrange pick-up. Children also learn healthy habits like covering coughs and sneezes and washing their hands. Cleaning Routine Young children are especially prone to catching germs, so our staff cleans classrooms and common areas frequently, with special attention to doorknobs, light switches, and toys. Cleaning products are always handled carefully and stored in locked cabinets, away from students. Experienced Teachers Every educator completes extensive background checks and interviews before joining our team, plus ongoing training in child abuse awareness and prevention, CPR, allergy protocol, first aid, supervision, and behavior management. They know how to stay calm and act fast. Our teachers know every child by name, which means nothing about your child’s day goes unnoticed.
