– Caring, loving, awesome, wonderful, thoughtful. Those are just a few words that best describes this daycare. I put my trust on them and they did not fail me. I was totally comfortable leaving my then 6 month old child in their care and he was there until 3 1/2. My child never wanted to leave at the end of the day, which is good because it meant that he was always well taken care of and he was happy. If I could afford them I would definitely stay with Hidaya Family Child Care! :)

PS: They are wonderful people!

PSS: Sorry Fatima and Haaji! I am not very good with writing but seriously Thank you so much for taking very good care of my boy! We will come by sometime to just say hello! –

You may have noticed that www.hfcc.info has started to get a makeover. We’re not quite done yet but we hope when we are complete the site will not only look more updated but will contain up-to-date information and useful tools for Hidaya Family Child Care! If you have any suggestions or useful information please let us know by email. hidayafcc@gmail.com Thank you for your patience.

We are open for business but PLEASE READ Coronavirus announcement.

Encourage staff to take everyday preventive actions to prevent the spread of respiratory illness.

Wash hands often with soap and water. If soap and water are not readily available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol.
Always wash hands with soap and water if hands are visibly dirty.
Remember to supervise young children when they use hand sanitizer to prevent swallowing alcohol.
Clean and disinfect frequently touched surfaces.
Cover cough and sneezes.
Cover your mouth and nose with a mask when you have to go out in public.
Masks should NOT be put on babies and children under age two because of the danger of suffocation.
Require sick children and staff to stay home.

Communicate to parents the importance of keeping children home when they are sick.
Communicate to staff the importance of being vigilant for symptoms and staying in touch with facility management if or when they start to feel sick.
Establish procedures to ensure children and staff who come to the child care center sick or become sick while at your facility are sent home as soon as possible.
Keep sick children and staff separate from well children and staff until they can be sent home.
Sick staff members should not return to work until they have met the criteria to discontinue home isolation.
Have a plan if someone is or becomes sick.

Plan to have an isolation room or area (such as a cot in a corner of the classroom) that can be used to isolate a sick child. Additional information about isolation in related settings can be found here: isolation at home and isolation in healthcare settings.
Be ready to follow CDC guidance on how to disinfect your building or facility if someone is sick.
If a sick child has been isolated in your facility, clean and disinfect surfaces in your isolation room or area after the sick child has gone home.
If COVID-19 is confirmed in a child or staff member:
Close off areas used by the person who is sick.
Open outside doors and windows to increase air circulation in the areas.
Wait up to 24 hours or as long as possible before you clean or disinfect to allow respiratory droplets to settle before cleaning and disinfecting.
Clean and disinfect all areas used by the person who is sick, such as offices, bathrooms, and common areas.
If more than 7 days have passed since the person who is sick visited or used the facility, additional cleaning and disinfection is not necessary.
Continue routine cleaning and disinfection.
