Come and see a day here.

Tours are relaxed. Bring your child, walk through the rooms and ask anything.

Plan your visit

Tell us your child's age and a few times that suit you. We will confirm by phone or email.

What a tour looks like

The room your child would join

You walk through the actual classroom, not a model room. Look at the shelves: what's on them, what the children can reach on their own. Step outside to the outdoor space, and see it during an ordinary part of the day.

The teachers

You meet the teacher who runs the room your child would join, and the director, Veronica Finlay. Ask how a day runs, from the first arrival to the last pickup. Ask how they handle the first weeks, when a child is still learning the room.

Your questions

Ask about hours, meals, pickups, and tuition. Every question is fair game, and there is no wrong one. If we do not know an answer on the spot, we follow up with you.

Before you come

Bring your child if you can. We serve ages gestation through age five, so a visit works best when your child can see the room and meet the teacher. Walk the space together, let them touch what is on the shelves. Children read a room faster than we do.

The questions worth asking: hours and pickup times, meals and rest, how the first weeks are handled. Ask how parents hear about the day and what happens when a child is unwell. Write your questions down before you come, so none slip your mind at the door.
