MMO Registration 2025-2026

Faith Presbyterian Church is excited to begin another year of Mother's Morning Out [MMO]! Our teachers provide a loving and faith-based environment for learning and play that includes story time, chapel, table activities, themed units of study, music, arts/crafts, and outdoor play. We will also incorporate a set time to serve a packed lunch or heavy snack from home each day.

We provide care for children ages 0-5 and we will meet 8:30a.m.-12:30p.m on Tuesdays/Thursdays (*new* hours for the 2025-2026 year). *Since our day is changing to a 4 hour day, we will no longer offer Extended Events (Lunch Bunch, Early Birds, Bookworms).

If you are interested in MMO enrollment for 2025-2026, please fill out THIS form. Feel free to contact the director with any questions. And please note, MMO fills up FAST!

Faith Presbyterian offers many opportunities throughout the year for fun and fellowship for children and families. We hope you will join us!

Mother’s Morning Out is a ministry of Faith Presbyterian Church, PCA and is exempt from state licensing requirements by Georgia Department of Early Care and Learning (Bright From The Start.) Faith MMO is proud to offer a loving and safe environment for children. All teachers have undergone thorough background checks and are CPR/First Aid certified with additional training in safety.

INCLEMENT WEATHER

MMO reserves the right to cancel class as necessary with advance notice. MMO follows Oconee County School District in their decision to close due to inclement weather. Email/text will be sent regarding closure or delayed start.

SICK POLICY

Children with diarrhea, vomiting, fever, excessive runny nose or eyes, and/or congested cough must be free of all symptoms without medication for 24 hours before returning to MMO.

INCONSOLABLE CHILD POLICY

The staff of MMO strives to provide a happy and loving environment for your child. Our goal is for every child who attends MMO to have an enjoyable and rewarding experience. However, if a child is unhappy and inconsolable after being dropped off, and continues to cry for thirty minutes after parent’s departure, parent will be called to pick up.

DISCIPLINE POLICY

Approaches to discipline will be designed and carried out in a positive manner, helping the child develop self-control and assume responsibility for his or her actions. Rules and expectations that are age-appropriate are established and communicated often. Children will be positively directed, re-directed and praised often. Under no circumstances will children be subjected to harsh or physical punishment. Every effort will be made to reinforce appropriate behavior.

DAILY ATTENDANCE

Parents are responsible for payment whether or not child attends. No tuition allowances will be given for vacation days, sick days, school holidays or emergency closings. Payment is divided into 9 monthly payments, August-May.

SUPPLIES

Registration/Tuition fee covers all craft supplies, curriculum materials and snacks. Parents supply formula, baby foods, diapers, wipes, ointments, bibs, and a complete change of clothing daily. All personal items must be labeled with child’s name. Donations of school supplies and snacks are always appreciated.

Your child needs a backpack or bag that is large enough to fit all personal items such as a coat, water bottle, diapers/wipes (if applicable) and a change of clothes.

ATTIRE

Children should be dressed for play. Appropriate-weather outerwear is needed for the playground. Sandals are not recommended.
