  • Frequently Asked Questions
    Will my child cry while adjusting?
    Some do and some don’t. We make sure to give extra attention to kids that are learning and settling in. Quickly they will get right in and play and move from activity to activity and fit right in.

    What kinds of foods do you serve?
    I cook homemade meals that are proven to be loved by kids. Minestrone, veggie soup, pulled chicken and veggies, pasta, lentils, beans and rice, veggie quinoa, turkey soup , etc etc. I make sure there are a lot of fruits and veggies regularly.

    How much outside time do the kids get?
    We get them out for over 2 hours everyday. The beauty of day care is that we can alter the schedule to get them out earlier or later depending on the weather so they don’t miss out unless the weather is extreme.

    What if my child won’t nap?
    We rately have a child that won’t nap. They are kept busy learning and playing! But fir the child that won’t nap, we encourage wuiet time. Either laying in quiet or looking at books so their minds and body get a rest.

    Can I pick up around 2?
    The 1-3 nap time is so precious! We encourage appointments to be made around this time or your child to be picked up before nap time. We would like early pick up time to be around 3:45/4. This way your child has played, learned, slept, eaten and is ready for you to just love and enjoy. Of course if you must on occasion pick up during nap time we will accomodate.

    Do I pay if My child comes half a day or not at all?
    Yes, the day is reserved for you if you use it or not like school.
