For Child Care Providers

As a child care professional, you can help prevent hot car deaths by educating yourself, your staff, and parents about the dangers of heatstroke. Post a flyer in your facility and share safety tips with parents. You should also consider creating a program to alert parents if a child doesn’t show up to child care as expected. These efforts can save a life.
