Extended Care (Morning & Aftercare)
Our Extended Care program offers families additional support before and after the preschool day, with the same warm, engaging environment children know from their classrooms.
Morning Care: Opens at 8:00 AM, giving children a calm, gentle start to their day with open-ended play and small group activities.
Aftercare: Runs until 5:30 PM, offering a mix of outdoor play, creative projects, stories, and time to wind down after the school day.
Environment: Extended Care has its own dedicated space, designed to feel like a natural extension of the classrooms — relaxed, playful, and nurturing.
Goal: To give families peace of mind and children a consistent, caring place to continue learning, playing, and connecting beyond core hours.
