October 2025 Parent Information

Happy Fall!

As the weather continues to cool down please make sure that your child has weather appropriate clothing. The toddlers and preschoolers continue to go outside daily in the mornings when it is still a little chilly. Every toddler and preschooler needs to have a jacket or sweatshirt and closed toe shoes. Once it cools down even more please make sure that your child has a warmer jacket, a hat, and gloves.

Thursday October 16th we will be closing at 4pm for staff training and Friday October 17th we will be closed for cleaning. Don’t forget to check below for future dates that we are closed and mark your calendars.

Classroom Reminders:

  • All parents are required to sign their child in and out each day.

  • Don’t forget to always have two complete sets of clothing in your child’s cubby.
