Frequently Asked Questions

Are both part-time and full-time care available?

Our program currently offers only FT care from the hours of 7:30am-5:30pm. Within these hours, children placed in our preschool program have daycare hours during morning and later afternoon. Please see our schedule per class. 

Are you accepting infants?

Children can join our program starting at 18 months. Families are encouraged to join our waitlist to have more flexibility in receiving a seat on their anticipated date. 

​

What are the child to staff ratios?

  Our program prides proviiding small group instruction to all of or students. Children in our Toddlers Program have a 1:6 or 1:4 ratio and students in our preschool class have a 1:8 ratio. All staff have an educational background with years of experience working with children. Staff will follow state vaccine and vaccination protocols, CPR-certified, mandated reporter training and go through a background clearance.

​

Are parents allowed to stay inside?

Due to COVID-19 protocols, families at the moment are unable to attend the class outside of morning drop-offs and pick-ups. We communicate with parents via an app, where you can see pictures, and other scheduled information. 

​

Are meals provided for the children?

Our school currently is under a local chef who prepares meals for students. This cost is additional and optional for families. Menus are provided for the month in advance. 

​

How do you keep in touch with or get in contact with the parents during the day?

We will be using the Brightwheel app which is available for download in the app store. This app is a wonderful tool for you to get picture updates, message the teacher and check your child in and out of daycare. 

​

My child doesn't nap, so what will they do during nap time?

Some children no longer nap, but it is required with the State of California, that children are given this rest period. Many children end up napping because of all the new stimulation taking place. If your child does not happen to nap during this time, quiet time activities of appropriate age and level will be left aside for them to use, along with library books. This will be their independent quiet time.

​

​

How will health & safety after COVID-19 be implemented?

Health and safety is our number one priority. As a newly opening facility, we will be following guidelines put out by the CDC , keeping our enrollment and teacher/student ratios low, along with washing hands, sanitizing, distancing children appropriately and  having the facility cleaned. Staff wears gloves when serving food and masks throughout the day. Please see the bottom of the page for additional protocols.
