SETTLING IN

Your Child's First Days

Pre-visits are essential. We require a minimum of three pre-visits before your child starts. For the first couple of visits you’ll stay the whole time, then gradually leave for short periods. We recommend morning, lunch and afternoon sessions to become familiar with daily routines. All children take different lengths of time to settle — feel free to discuss anything that may help.
