Potty Training As a Team
The proverb, “It takes a village to raise a child,” holds true when potty training your toddler. The process can be easier and more fun when everyone from siblings to grandparents to childcare providers are involved, in addition to mom and dad. The collaboration of family and childcare providers bring about successful potty training.
We look forward to working with you and your child collaboratively and cheering for your child’s successes.
Homework Club for School Age Children
We understand that homework is important and due to the volume that is often assigned to our students, we recognize the importance of working on homework during the time that your child is in our care. With dance, sports, and other commitments, often there is Just not enough time once the family gets back home.
Because of this, we have decided to allot time and space for homework. We limit our groups to quiet activities once they arrive to our afterschool program, so children with homework have a
calmer environment to focus on their studies.
A designated staff member will be available to assist with your child’s homework. Due to on- going supervision of other children, our staff member cannot exclusively “tutor” your child but they can help with directions and check their work to the best of their ability. Parent’s eyes should always be the last ones to look over your student’s homework.
