Do you have an outside play area?
Yes we have a fenced in play yard with a climbing structure, sand area, seesaws and a dramatic play kitchen area. On rainy or very cold days we also have a large indoor space for bike riding, hockey, basketball, gross motor movement games and various large motor activities.
Do you provide a snack and lunch?
No. We do not provide a snack or lunch. We ask that each child bring both in containers labeled with their name, along with a refillable water bottle each day.
How many classrooms do you have?
Four total. Two of which located on the main floor of the building and two located in the downstairs space.
Are they learning different languages?
Yes! We are excited to teach children Spanish through songs and creative games!
How many children are in each class?
Each classroom can have up to 16 children with a teacher and a teacher’s aide.
Does my child have to be potty trained?
Yes we encourage your child to be potty trained, but we will work with families as they are developing at different stages in a kind and caring manner. Our Toileting/Diapering Procedures and policy can be found in the Totland Handbook.
Drop off/Pick Up
Each day families line up at our back door and the children only are invited in to hang up their back packs and get ready to start the day! At pick up, they are dismissed to their parent(s)/guardian(s) the same way. This encourages them to gain their independence as they journey toward readiness for Kindergarten! Yet, Parent(s)/Guardian(s) are invited to join us anytime while their child is in school.
How does Lunch Bunch and Extended Day work?
From 11:30 am – 12:30 p.m. Children are invited to stay for lunch and an informal playtime. In Extended Day, following lunch they continue the theme of the day through play, additional science activities and art adventures! The cost for Lunch Bunch only is $15.00 with Extended Day including lunch and classes for a cost of $35.00 per day.
