School Notes

Here at Northgate we focus on maintaining a family centered environment where our staff works hand-in-hand with each family to develop the social, emotional, physical, and cognitive needs of each child through active daily communication and an open door policy. We are dedicated to the overall success and happiness of each family we serve and are excited to meet you!
- At Northgate your child's safety is one of our top priorities. Like all KinderCare Learning Centers, Northgate keeps all of our outside perimeter doors locked to ensure security and our playgrounds are fenced with locked gates. The front door of our center has a coded entry where only authorized family members and staff will have the code to enter. We have a doorbell located outside of our front door for all visitors who will be greeted by one of our center staff members. Northgate also has a Health and Safety Coordinator on site. Jenny is responsible for conducting monthly earthquake and fire drills, ensuring that all staff's grab-and-go bags for first aid and CPR/First Aid certificates are up to date.
