Product Details

The CareShield 1-Sided Plexiglass Barrier System by Foundations offers a robust solution for childcare centers seeking to enhance safety and optimize space. Designed with clarity and practicality in mind, this system provides an extended height barrier, effectively functioning as both a room and crib divider. This added vertical dimension significantly elevates the level of protection, fostering a safer environment for both children and caregivers. By creating a physical separation, the CareShield system minimizes the potential for cross-contamination and reduces the spread of germs, a crucial consideration in childcare settings. Furthermore, its transparent plexiglass construction ensures unobstructed visibility, allowing caregivers to maintain constant supervision and interaction with the children. The system's design is not only focused on safety but also on maximizing operational efficiency. For instance, the ability to arrange cribs closer together in a linear fashion, facilitated by the CareShield system, can potentially increase enrollment capacity, addressing the ever-present challenge of maximizing space within a childcare facility.

Beyond its safety features, the CareShield System empowers childcare centers with greater flexibility in their floor plan design. This adaptability is particularly beneficial in adhering to recommended safety guidelines, which often dictate specific spatial arrangements. By acting as a versatile divider, the system enables centers to reconfigure their layouts to meet evolving regulatory requirements and optimize the use of available space. The system's ability to create distinct zones within a room also aids in managing different activities and age groups, contributing to a more organized and efficient environment. It is important to note that while the CareShield system offers a valuable tool for enhancing safety and space utilization, childcare centers should always consult with their local licensing office to ensure compliance with all applicable regulations. This proactive approach ensures that the implementation of the CareShield system aligns with local standards, providing a comprehensive and compliant solution for childcare facilities.

The CareShield 1-Sided Plexiglass Barrier System by Foundations is compatible only with Foundations SafetyCraft and Serenity Cribs.

Product Features

  • Robust 3/4" Plexiglass Construction: The thick, 3/4-inch plexiglass panels provide exceptional impact resistance and structural integrity, ensuring a durable and long-lasting barrier. This thickness minimizes the risk of cracking or shattering, even with potential impacts.
  • Increased Safety for Infants During Movement and Play: The added barrier height and robust construction provide increased safety for infants during movement and play within the crib, reducing the risk of accidental falls or injuries.
  • Facilitates Compliance with Recommended Safety Guidelines: The barrier system assists childcare centers in meeting and exceeding recommended safety guidelines, ensuring a secure and compliant environment.
  • Deterrent Against Object Throwing: The added height acts as a deterrent against infants throwing toys or other objects out of the crib, protecting both the infants and the surrounding environment.
  • Creation of Defined and Protected Crib Zones: The barriers create clearly defined and protected crib zones, providing a sense of security and separation for each infant.
  • Reduction of Distractions and Sensory Overload: By creating a visual barrier, the system can help reduce distractions and sensory overload for infants, promoting a calmer and more restful environment.
  • Durable and Long-Lasting Material for Extended Use: The high-quality plexiglass material is designed for long-term durability and resistance to wear and tear, ensuring the barrier system maintains its structural integrity and functionality over time.
  • Extended 11.5" Vertical Barrier: The 11.5-inch height extension above the crib rail significantly increases the barrier's protective reach. This added height helps prevent infants from reaching over the crib sides or potentially throwing objects out.
  • Crystal-Clear Transparency for Uninterrupted Monitoring: The fully transparent plexiglass allows for continuous, unobstructed visual monitoring of infants within the cribs. This is crucial for caregivers to maintain constant supervision and respond promptly to any needs.
  • Precise Fit with Foundations SafetyCraft and Serenity Cribs: The barrier system is specifically designed to integrate seamlessly with Foundations SafetyCraft and Serenity cribs, ensuring a secure and stable fit. This precise compatibility eliminates gaps or loose connections that could compromise safety.
  • Simplified Installation Utilizing Existing Crib Hardware: The design leverages the crib's existing hardware, simplifying the installation process. This reduces the need for additional tools or complex assembly, saving time and effort.
  • Secure Interlocking Design Between Panels and Rails: The system is engineered to fit snugly between the crib panels and side rails, creating a secure interlocking structure. This design prevents the barrier from shifting or dislodging, even with movement within the crib.
  • Optimized Linear Crib Arrangement for Space Efficiency: The barrier's design enables childcare centers to arrange cribs in a closer linear configuration, maximizing floor space utilization. This is particularly beneficial in facilities with limited space.
  • Enhanced Infection Control Through Smooth, Non-Porous Surface: The smooth, non-porous plexiglass surface is easy to clean and sanitize, minimizing the risk of bacterial or viral transmission. This is crucial for maintaining a hygienic environment in childcare settings.
  • Prevention of Cross-Contamination and Germ Spread: By creating a physical barrier between cribs, the system helps prevent the spread of germs and cross-contamination, contributing to a healthier environment for infants.
