A note on rest time

Why we offer quiet time instead of a fixed nap, and how families can help at home.

Children between one and three need very different amounts of sleep. In Sprouts we follow each child’s own rhythm, with a dim, quiet room available all day. In Explorers and Makers we offer a rest hour after lunch; children who do not sleep look at books or draw quietly on their mats.

If your child’s sleep changes at home, tell your caregiver at drop-off and we will adjust the day.
