When Mrs. Hopkins arrived to pick up her child, I would ask if everything is ok and if she is experiencing constraints that make it difficult for her to arrive on time to pick up her child. If she is having trouble due to a situation out of her control, such as getting stuck in traffic from work, I would try to help her find another solution. If Mrs. Hopkins does not have a reason for being late other than she just loses track of time, then I would remind her of our policies and inform her that we will not be able to continue accommodating her child if she is unable to abide by our pick up policies. Keeping a child longer than legally able puts the center at risk, as well affects the time commitments of workers at the facility.
