​Illnesses

 Everyone gets sick sometimes! If your child will be absent for a session due to illness or appointments, we ask that you call or email Miss Shelley! A make-up day can be arranged.


Pick-Up Time

The ongoing safety of our children is of utmost importance.  To ensure all are safe, please DO NOT open or enter through the playground gate.  It is the responsibility of our Educators to safely release our children to authorized persons.  IF we are experiencing inclement weather, an Educator will be waiting for parents at our entrance.
