Pick-Up: At the end of each session, a parent or guardian must come into the store to sign their child out. A valid photo ID is required and must match the individual who is authorized for pick-up.
If someone other than the individual who dropped off the child will be picking them up, this must be communicated to In The Kitchen staff in advance.
