Our Max Daily Hours of Care Policy
Max Daily Hours of Care
Policy?
Young children under 5 years old need strong, secure emotional bonds with their primary caregiver, parents or guardians. We completely understand that balancing work life and family responsibilities can be very challenging, and we truly appreciate the effort parents make to coordinate their work schedules with your child's care.
We aim for keeping children’s routines consistent, and this is why we are limiting the day to 8/9 hours. This helps support your child's emotional wellbeing and prevents them from possible attachment issues, stress, or overstimulation. Especially in infants, who may never been in a large childcare setting.​​
Infant/Wobbler
0-18 months
Daily limit: up to 8 hours of care
Toddlers & Preschool
19 months - 5 yrs
Daily limit: up to 9 hours of care
