Plus One Meetings is committed to creating a safe and inviting space for our participants to play, explore, laugh, invent and make lots of memories.

 

Here's what you can expect from our Plus One Meetings care program:

 

This year, participants can take advantage of the many experiences offered by the hotel as well as activities in our home base. We will  provide games and activities designed to let participants explore, play and take in their surroundings as interest level allows.

 

We are pleased to offer multiple care options.

Daycare options for

PMS individuals of all ages

1:1 ratio

HIGHEST SUPPORT

Each Phelan-McDermid syndrome individual is paired with one dedicated caregiver.

 

This option is recommended for Phelan-McDermid syndrome individuals who require continuous one-on-one supervision or assistance, including those who may be at risk for:

  • Elopement

  • Choking or mouthing items

  • Falling

  • Grabbing, biting, or harming others

  • Aspiration

  • Other safety concerns requiring constant oversight and monitoring

 

Families selecting this option will be asked whether they grant permission for the caregiver to take their Phelan-McDermid syndrome individual on supervised walks around the hotel campus.

 

If you would like your Phelan-McDermid syndrome individual to explore the hotel campus with their caregiver, you must select this 1:1 highest support option. Your loved one with Phelan-McDermid syndrome may not leave the daycare area without the 1:1 highest support option. Please note: excursions will not include the waterpark area.

​​

1:2 ratio

LOWER SUPPORT

One caregiver provides shared support for two Phelan-McDermid syndrome individuals.

 

This option is intended for more independent Phelan-McDermid syndrome individuals who:

  • Do not require continuous one-on-one supervision

  • Can safely participate in structured activities with shared support. 

  • Are comfortable remaining within designated daycare spaces

  • Are able to follow basic verbal instructions

 

Please note: If your Phelan-McDermid syndrome individual will want to walk around the hotel campus, the 1:1 highest support option is required.

Daycare options for

Siblings with age-appropriate support needs 

Ages 0 to 5 years

Sibling daycare

Children ages 0–5 will remain in the daycare rooms and participate in age-appropriate activities.

Staff-to-child ratios:

  • Infants under 12 months: 1:2 ratio

  • 12 months to under 3 years: 1:3 ratio

  • 3 to 5 years: 1:4 ratio

 

This option mirrors the sibling daycare offered at past PMSF conferences.

Ages 6 years and up

NEW! Sibling camp activities

Siblings ages 6 and older will participate in camp-style activities throughout the Gaylord Rockies campus, as well as activities in the daycare rooms, all supervised by Plus One Meetings staff.

Group sizes and ratios:

  • Ages 6 to under 8: 1:6 ratio

  • Ages 8 and up: 1:8 ratio

  • Groups of approximately 6–8 children, based on age

 

Examples of camp activities include: ice breakers, team-building activities, tennis, basketball, pickleball, mini golf, outdoor lawn games, arts & crafts, movie afternoons, and more! Please note: camp activities will not include the waterpark area.

Spots are limited (based on room capacity). Please choose the level of care the participant needs below.  Note: if you are registering more than one participant, please complete registering and payment for one participant at a time.  You will be prompted to register additional participants as needed. 

**If your participant requires a specific level of care, you must check the box immediately before the appropriate level number to the left**

Level of Care
Level 1: Participants in this group will be supported within the following age-based ratios. Siblings will be assigned to home base daycare (age 5 & under) or sibling camp (age 6 & up) depending on the child's age. (< 12 months - 1:2 - 12 months to < 3 years - 1:3 - 3 to 5 years - 1:4 - 6 to 8 years - 1:6 - 8+ years - 1:8)
Level 2 (1:2) - This group is for children and adults with Phelan-McDermid syndrome who would do well sharing a caregiver with another participant with similar interests and equal activity level. If selecting this level, your participant will remain at our home base.
Level 3 (1:1) - This group is for children and adults with Phelan-McDermid syndrome who would best benefit from direct supervision (uncontrolled seizures or other medical concerns, temperament, challenging behaviors, etc.). This level must be selected if you wish your participant to be able to walk around the property to participate in activities outside of our home base.
Unsure / More Info Needed - someone from Plus One Meetings will contact you to discuss.

For Level 2:

Does your participant prefer to take frequent walks around the room?
Yes
No
Does your participant prefer to sit at a hands on activity?
Yes
No
Does your participant prefer to sit and watch a visual presentation for an extended time?
