Policies & Expectations

COVID-19 Policy

Face masks are required for all unvaccinated adults.

Here at EDC, we are dedicated to engaging and energizing the youth of the Central Coast. However, above all else, we are dedicated to keeping our families and staff SAFE while on our campus. We require our unvaccinated friends to wear a mask while enjoying or facilities at all times. We always have adult and child-sized masks available in our office if you forget your own. If you remove your mask or decline to comply, you will be asked to leave. We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone. It is important to us to keep our community healthy to ensure our kids are able to remain in school and enjoy social settings.

Alongside our current mask protocol, our staff is diligent in maintaining the cleanliness of our playrooms. All toys, exhibits, and equipment are sanitized regularly throughout the day to ensure your kids stay as healthy as possible and continue to fill our campus with laughter. Help us all, so we can keep on playing!
