Safety PracticesIn Every Session

Credentials are the foundation — but safety is also built through consistent practices, professional habits, and a genuine commitment to every child's wellbeing.

Arrival at agreed time with professional demeanor
Emergency contact information collected before care begins
Knowledge of child's allergies, medical needs, and routines
Safe sleep practices for infants
Age-appropriate supervision at all times
First aid kit available during care sessions
Clear communication protocol for any incidents
No unauthorized persons present during care
Documentation available upon request
Regular parent updates throughout care sessions

Why This Matters

In Pennsylvania, not all childcare providers are required to hold clearances or certifications. Petrina holds them voluntarily — because she believes families deserve the highest standard of professional care, not just the minimum required by law.

Request Documentation

All credentials are available for review before care begins. Simply ask when you reach out.
