“Fit Kid” Policies

One of the many benefits of membership at Fit In Boonsboro is our first-class Child Care Service.

Members: $3.00 per child, per visit/Non-Members $5.00 per child, per visit (payable @ front desk). Unlimited Monthly Care: $20.00 per month for the 1st child, $10.00 for each additional child.
Children may stay up to 2 hours at a time and will have access to a wide variety of activities including toys, television, movies, Wii games, books, crafts and more.

Safety

All children must have a signed (orange) consent form on file. Please be sure to include any and all allergies!
All children must be signed in upon arrival, and out upon departure
Unless otherwise specified, children must be signed in and out by the same person
A parent or guardian of the child must remain on the premises at all times
No children are permitted in the adult workout area without direct supervision
No children are permitted in the Fit Kid room after scheduled child care hours and/or without staff supervision
For the prevention of allergies and the general health of all our Fit Kids, we ask that parents refrain from sending snacks. Fit Kids will provide a non-allergenic snack on an as-needed basis.
For the prevention of illness, please:
- Be sure to label beverages clearly with your child’s name
  Refrain from using this service if your child has suffered from fever, vomiting, diarrhea, rashes, viruses, cough or infection during the past 48 hours. Fit Kids reserves the right to decline access to children who show signs of illness.

The Fit Kid staff are not permitted to change diapers or assist with toilet use. If the need arises, you will be asked to return.

For the safety of all concerned, the Fit Kid staff cannot allow rough play or violence of any kind. Any incident of this nature will be recorded with parental signature and addressed as follows:

First Incident – the Fit Kid staff will make every effort to re-direct the child’s behavior in a firm but kind manner;
Second incident – parents will be asked to return to the playroom, intervene and attempt to remedy the issue;
Third incident – Fit Kids Staff reserves the right to request the departure of any child who may pose a danger to him/herself or others. In this event, we would request a meeting between the childs’ parent and Fit In Boonsboro Management prior to the his/her return to Fit Kids.

Comfort

Due to the risk of loss or damage, Fit Kids discourages bringing personal toys and belongings into the playroom. However, if it is necessary to do so, please clearly label all items.
Should a child become upset, the Fit Kid Staff will make every effort to console your child. However, if they are unable to adequately comfort him/her within 10 minutes, we will ask you to return.
With parents’ permission, children may be offered a choice from a “Goodie Bucket” upon departure. Please let us know if you prefer that we NOT offer this to your child.

Inclement Weather Policy

Unless otherwise indicated, Fit’s policy is to remain open during our normal operating hours in case of inclement weather. When the weather insists on interrupting the daily operation of our facility, management will evaluate the severity of the situation and, on a case-by-case basis determine if changes are necessary.

Being mindful of the safety of our staff & guests will always be a priority.

If, for any reason, Fit will be closed during our normal operating hours, we will post a notification on the website. For updated information on operating hours or closing details, please call the reception area at 301-432-5206.
