with 1 adult
Ages 12 months to 5 years
Each child is handed over in person, at the door, and goes home only with the adults on your list. We ask for ID from anyone we don't know.
Amela is with the children all day, so you always know who is looking after your child. If she is ill, she tells families early, and the group is cared for by a substitute you have met.
Tell us about any allergy at the tour. Once you enroll, we ask again in private, and the plan is written down in the kitchen.
Each child has a cot of their own, with a sheet and nothing else in it, in the quiet room.
Hands are washed when children arrive, before every meal and after play outside.
Lunch and snacks are cooked here, and what goes into them follows what your family eats.
