Children must be signed out of the register by the adult collecting them. If a situation arises in which your child/ren have to be collected by an adult who is not on your authorised adult list a password system will operate. To ensure the safety of all children, Willow Garden staff will not release children into the care of anyone who is not on your authorised adult list without the correct password without gaining confirmation from you first.
