Does my child need to be potty-trained?
Children do not need to be potty-trained upon entering our school. We work with families to train them when the child shows sign of readiness.
How do you ensure the safety and security of the children?
Safety is our top priority. Our facilities are equipped with state-of-the-art security systems, including surveillance cameras and controlled access. All staff are trained in first aid and emergency response.
How do you handle communication with parents about a child's progress and daily activities?
We use a parent-teacher communication app to send daily updates and photos. Parents can also schedule meetings with teachers for detailed discussions on their child's progress. We have an open-door policy for parent communications.
