Daily routine & settling in
We want your child to feel happy and safe with us and when they first start at Preschool the staff will work with you to decide how best to help your child settle. You may stay for as long as you think is necessary to help him/her feel happy and comfortable and we encourage you to visit with your child before their first day, so they are familiar with the location and the staff.
