Due to a confirmed case of COVID-19 virus reported within our center on October 21st, 2020, Hillcrest Kids was closed for two business days (October 22nd and 23rd) for extended cleaning and sanitizing. We reopened on Monday October 26th, for families not affected by quarantine due to close contact with the affected individual. Whatcom County Health Department maintained — and will continue to hold — the authority to require any affected individuals or families to stay in quarantine, and/or to extend closures now, or as required in the future. We would like to thank all our families, staff, and community resources, for their patience and assistance in helping us return to service as carefully and quickly as we were able.
Washington Department of Health has issued these guidelines for determining who can and cannot attend due to symptoms known to accompany COVID-19 virus. Please read and familiarize yourself with this sheet as it will be our format moving forward.
