Naptime
If you would like your child to take a nap, please inform the staff. Infants sleep on their own schedule, as infants “graduate” we will transition them to the 1:00 p.m. nap time. Unless we have written instruction by a physician all infants are placed on their backs for sleeping .
There is a separate room with cribs and cots, children are supervised during naptime by a staff members.
Older children may also nap or, if parents desire, they may rest. We have cots for older children, and they may bring a blanket or cuddly toy to be used during this time. Bedding is provided.
Naptime is 1:00 PM until the child wakes.
