MOPS of Martha Bowman MUMC

Volunteer Guidelines for MOPPETS:

• Currently we must require that all moms utilizing childcare serve in MOPPETS as extra help. Until we have enough volunteers from the community, we will have to supplement during our meetings. We want to assure every mom that their child is well taken care of during our MOPS meetings, so we need to have plenty of help.
• The MOPPETS Mom volunteer list will be at the registration table where you sign in, outside the CLC. Please voluntarily sign up for your slot(s). We will call you for your preference if you do not choose a time slot on your own.
• You have the option of working one full meeting or two half-meetings. If you are unable to make it for MOPPETS duty, please make your own arrangements for someone to fill in for you.
• If you change dates with someone, please contact the MOPPETS Administrator so she can keep track. If you "no-show" you will still be responsible for serving another time slot.

Pay close attention to allergies.  Check class list and name tags.

Toys that have been chewed on by child should be placed into the dirty toy basket in the room.
Quickly change dirty diapers.  Wash hands or use hand sanitizer.
