How to enroll

01
Step 1: Get in touch
Call, text or write. Olive or Shakira answers within a day or two and sends the next open house.
02
Step 2: Book a tour
Tours are play mornings, so you see the rooms working. Children can come along, and you can stay as long as you like.
03
Step 3: Apply
A short application with your child's age and the schedule you hope for. We ask for health and custody details privately, once you enroll.
04
Step 4: Hear from us
Offers go out in early March. If a room is full, you join the waitlist and we write as places open.
05
Step 5: Register
Once you accept the place, we ask privately for the forms we need. Nothing medical goes through this website.
06
Step 6: The first day
New children start with a short visit in July and a short first morning in August, with a parent close by.
