Before Care: A Healthy and Calm Start to the Day
Children who participate in our before-care program can arrive early, settle in, and enjoy a healthy breakfast if they arrive by 7:15 AM. This helps them begin the school day alert, focused, and ready to learn. Our morning routine includes quiet time and gentle transitions to set a positive tone for the day ahead.
Aftercare: A Balanced Afternoon
Our aftercare routine blends productivity and play in a warm, structured environment. Children are welcomed each afternoon with a nutritious snack before diving into their customized routine.
Afternoon highlights include:
-
Homework Help: Dedicated time and support for completing school assignments
-
Outdoor Play: Time to run, jump, and socialize in our supervised outdoor space
-
Creative Activities: Arts and crafts, STEM projects, games, and storytelling
-
Downtime Options: Reading corners and quiet games for kids who need to decompress after school
We believe after school care should be both restorative and engaging. Our program gives students a place to wind down, catch up, and grow.
