What registered means
Registered is the state's word for a family child care home like ours. The Child Development Division has our name and address, and we keep to its rules for homes: up to 6 children at a time, with 1 adult. Larger programs follow a different set of rules. Ask to see the registration at your tour.
Drop-off and pickup
Every child is handed over in person, at the door. Only the people on your pickup list collect a child, and we ask for ID from anyone we don't know.
Naps
Babies sleep on their backs, in their own cots, with nothing in the cot. Older children rest on mats after lunch.
Allergies
Tell us about any allergy at the tour. Once you enroll, we ask again in private.
Cold and icy days
When the weather is too harsh to go out, we play inside, and we text families before drop-off.
