Daily schedule

What a Tuesday actually looks like

Predictable rhythm, flexible pacing. Infants follow their own schedules; every other room runs on the timeline below.

  1. 6:30 – 8:00

    Arrival & Welcome

    Warm greetings at the door, health check, and quiet table activities as friends arrive.

  2. 8:00 – 8:30

    Breakfast

    Family-style breakfast prepared in our on-site kitchen. Children help set and clear.

  3. 8:30 – 9:00

    Circle Time

    Songs, calendar, weather, feelings check-in, and a preview of the day's investigation.

Good to know

The details parents ask about most

  • Late arrivals

    Arrive any time before 9:30 AM so your child can join circle time and morning centers.

  • Nap flexibility

    Non-sleepers rest quietly for 45 minutes, then choose books or table work.

  • Weather

    We go outside unless it's below 30°F, above 95°F, or the air quality index is unhealthy.

  • Daily report

    Meals, naps, diapers, mood, and photos land in your portal before 4:00 PM.

Come see the difference in person

Tours run Monday through Friday. Meet the teachers, walk the classrooms, and ask us anything.
