Overview
We offer 2, 3, and 5 full and half day programs for children 18 months and above at both schools, and 2, 3, and 5 full day programs for infants. Occasionally, we can fulflll a request for an unusal schedule, so please ask! Our 3 day schedule is Monday through Wednesday and our 2 day schedule is Thursday/Friday.
Our hours are 7-7 at Princeton and 7-6 at Foxmoor, with limited school closings – only major legal holidays; no week long closures. Two or three snacks are included in tuition (depending on the length of the child’s day with us). Diapers and wipes are also included in the cost of tuition.
Check with us about “back-up care” for your child. With proper notice, we can accommodate most requests for extra days of care if your child is not full time with us. Many corporations provide “Back-Up Care Advantage” for their employees, a subsidy for occasional child care services. Children over 18 months and up to age 9 can use this service.
Toddlers
The age ranges in our toddler room vary – children can be as young as 18 months and stay until they are almost 4 if this is the best placement for their development. If there is a concentration of children in the younger age range, the ratio is 1:5, it can be 1:6 if children are more mature. The curriculum and schedule are similar to that of a young preschool classroom at Harmony, but activities are shorter and simpler to meet a toddler’s attention span. They are introduced to letter, number, color and shape recognition through their 
activities and play. The 21st century toddler who has begun to talk often knows how to say the words that represent these concepts, but we help them to realize what the words mean. Outside time twice daily is very popular for not just physical development, but creativity too. Potty training is coordinated between school and home when children show signs of control and interest during their time in the toddler room.
