From hello to see-you-tomorrow.
A preschool day, roughly. Infant days follow each baby's own rhythm.
Doors open
Quiet play, a hug at the door, and breakfast for early arrivals.
Morning snack
Fruit, grains and milk from our cook. Always nut-free.
Outside, whatever the weather
Climbing, digging, puddles. Splash suits live in the cubbies.
Small-group discovery
Projects the children choose: this month, why leaves change colour.
Hot lunch
Cooked on site, family style. Menus posted weekly in the app.
Rest time
Sleep or quiet books on a cot. Nobody is made to sleep.
Snack, art and music
Paint, clay, drums, and the daily dance party.
Outside again
Second outdoor play, then stories while families arrive.
See you tomorrow
