Parents pack lunches. For our Toddler and Preschool classes, we’re happy to refrigerate and warm up lunches as needed.

We use monthly themes to guide our activities, including play, art, music, and movement. But we also follow the children’s interests wherever they lead us.

Sensory exploration and creativity are central to our program—so yes, children may come home a little messy!

Do you offer enrichment activities?

Accepted Answer

Yes! We partner with outside vendors for weekly enrichment (music, yoga, and gymnastics) and invite special visitors whenever possible, including firefighters, local musicians, authors, public transit educators, and librarians.

Question 8

What is your approach to discipline?

Accepted Answer

We approach discipline in two ways: talking through challenging moments, and redirection when appropriate.

Teachers help children name their feelings, talk through conflicts, and find solutions together. We also offer a quiet space when children need a moment to cool off or reset.
