Program Support Space
- There needs to be a separate bathroom for staff/adults.
- If you are providing meals other than snack, you will need staff that are certified to handle food as well as an appropriate kitchen. This space is not to be used by children and needs to meet local health department regulations.
- You may want to include a parent reception area that ideally contains resources and comfortable furniture.
- Program support space also includes office space which can sufficiently contain all needed equipment and provide ample space for meeting with staff.
- Staff will need locked storage for their personal items.
- A comfortable and attractive space for staff breaks is important in creating a supportive work environment.
- Some programs have a laundry area with a washer and dryer, especially if they have crib bedding to wash for infants and toddlers.
