Does my child need to be potty trained to attend?
Your child does not need to be fully toilet trained. They may attend with a pull up. If your child has a bowel movement, we will call home for a pick up/change. We do not have diapering stations on site. We will remove wet clothing and send it home at pick up. Toilet training can be a difficult transition, we are here to encourage and support toileting routines.

How do I enroll my child?
Registration is on a first come first serve basis. Please email or call the school for information and availability. After we have confirmed availability, forms can be accessed on the website. All forms must be fully completed and the $50 registration fee e- transferred to the school's email address, this will ensure your child's spot. Further correspondence will be available closer to the child's start date.
