  • Naps

    Babies sleep on their backs, in their own crib, with nothing else in the crib. Older children rest on cots with their own blanket.

  • Clean hands

    Every room washes hands on arrival, before meals and after outdoor play.

  • Fenced yard

    Children go out to the fenced yard with their room's teacher, and an adult is always with them.

  • Drills

    Each room practices fire and earthquake drills with the teacher who leads it.
