As used herein, the terms “parent” or “parents” shall also encompass guardians. Only children of Union members between the ages of two (2) months and six (6) years may participate in the Boston Teachers Union (BTU) childcare program. Parents must reserve a space for childcare seven (7) days in advance of a given membership meeting. Reservations may be made by delivering a completed application to Shanika White, BTU Internal Organizer, via email at shoulder@btu.org or physically at the offices of the Boston Teachers Union, 180 Mount Vernon Street, Dorchester, MA 02125. Reservations will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis, up to ten (10) children per meeting. Upon acceptance of ten reservations, further applications will be added to a waiting list for the specific meeting in question. Any parent who needs to cancel a reservation must inform Shanika White via email or phone (857-271-6064) at least 48 hours in advance of the meeting so that the space may be offered to the next child on the waiting list. Any parent who fails to provide adequate notice of cancellation of a reservation may be rendered ineligible for future participation in the childcare program, at the sole discretion of the Boston Teachers Union. No child will be admitted to any membership meeting absent a prior reservation for childcare on the specific date in question. Parents must remain on the premises of the Boston Teachers Union and be reachable by cell phone at all times while childcare is being provided. Each parent is required to provide for the individual needs of his or her child (e.g., diapers, bedding, food, toys, etc.). Each parent will be responsible for feeding, diapering or toileting, and discipline at all times. Each parent will sign his or her child in and out of the childcare program, as appropriate. Each child must be picked up within ten (10) minutes of the conclusion of the meeting for which childcare is being provided. Care will not be provided for children who are ill, including, but not limited to, children displaying the following symptoms: fever of 100.0 degrees or more; rash; vomiting within twenty-four (24) hours; earache; diarrhea; severe cold/flu; eye discharge; head lice. Childcare may be cancelled without notice if insufficient childcare workers are available. Any child engaging in behavior with the potential to harm self or others may be excluded from receiving further childcare at the sole discretion of the childcare providers. Childcare is provided by BTU solely for the benefit and convenience of its members. I willingly and voluntarily assume all risk of harm to my child during the provision of childcare services, unless such harm results from intentional misconduct by BTU or the childcare service provider. I have read, understand, and accept all of the above terms and conditions.
