The first few days of preschool are known as “Settling-In.” Settling in means a new routine for everyone! And this can take time to get used to. During this transition period, children will meet their new teachers and classmates, and are gradually familiarized with the school and classroom routines. The length of time it takes before your child attends a full schedule will depend on the age and the individual child. Children are all unique. What we have found to work best is for the parent to join your child for 2 hours on the first day and leave with them. We want them to come in happy and leave happy. Throughout this first week, you will gradually leave your child for longer periods of time until they are fully settled in and happy.
We strive to keep our children safe and healthy at all times. If a child has a fever, diarrhea or is vomiting, we send the child home. It is crucial that while your child’s immunity is down he/she stays home to recover fully. If a child has allergies such as seasonal coughs and runny noses, we will need a doctor’s note to ensure that the symptoms are not contagious.
Yes, we do! When a child starts showing signs that he/she is ready to be potty trained, we notify the parents. We ask that the parents begin potty training at home on a weekend, and together we continue at school.
You can contact us at any time to check in on your child. You can meet your child’s teacher daily at drop off and pick up. We also provide a reporting system to keep you updated on your child’s progress.
Our Adult to Child ratio differs depending on the age of the children. In the Infants class, the ratio is 1:2 . In the Toddlers class, the ratio is 1:3. In the Preschool class, the ratio is 1:5 and finally, in the Pre-K class, the ratio is 1:8.
We believe there are three keys to good discipline; being calm, clear and consistent. Teachers use low voices when speaking with the children. They explain what is expected in a clear and simple way. They are consistent, following the same rules all the time. The child is never blamed: the behavior is unacceptable and not the child. Discipline is a process of learning self-control, respect for others, and responsibility. Positive reinforcement, good role modeling and redirection is used. For any on-going issues, teachers will communicate with parents so that both the school and the home are working together with the child’s best interest at heart.
Good nutrition is of utmost importance for lifelong health, and it begins at infancy. Healthy eating can stabilize children’s energy, sharpen their minds, and enhance their moods. We provide your child with three nutritious meals a day, filled with protein, carbs, fruits, and vegetables to keep their energies full all day long.
