Our day

What a Day With Us Looks Like

Playing, learning, eating, resting, and lots of outside time. Here are the basics.
Ages
We care for all kids, from newborns on up. Our youngest was 2 months old. Our current kids are 1 to 6, and we help school-age kids with homework too.
Hours
Our day starts when your child arrives. Our first kids come in at 7:00 am, and pickup is at 6:00 pm. Later pickups are welcome. Ask us about overnights and weekend sitting.
Meals
Breakfast and lunch, plus dinner for kids who are here later. We do not serve pork. If your child needs something different, we make different food, or you can bring their own lunch. It is simple: we figure out what each child needs and give it to them.
