Daily Routine

A structured and flexible routine from 8am to 4pm

Why Routine Matters

Children love routine; I believe routine helps babies and young children to feel secure and contented. As all children are different, it is very important that I find a way to meet each child's requirements without upsetting the routine of my existing children. My routine is not rigid, but provides structure and predictability throughout the day.
