Scheduling and Program Options
Full or part time care: Flexible scheduling to meet your personal childcare needs.

Childcare is available from 7:30am until 6:00pm.

Infant/toddler
Full time care is available ranging from two to five days a week, from 7:30am to 6:00pm. Because each infant/toddler is different there is not a set schedule for these rooms, rather we cater to the needs of each individual child. Each baby is assigned their own crib. Blankets and stuffed animals may be brought from home to help with nap times. We welcome parents (especially nursing moms) to come and visit during their lunch hours, or other convenient times. Full days are required until the preschool program starts at age 2.
