Nap and Rest
All children will have rest time each day. Infants and preschoolers will have nap time in a crib or on a cot, while older children will have quiet time. In the Infant Program the children sleep when they need to sleep. They are provided with a crib and then a cot after 18 months. We ask that you bring your infant or preschooler a blanket and a special soft item if they prefer. Infants under 12 months will not be given a blanket or soft toy. A tight fitting bunting bag or sleep sac may be used. Items will be sent home each Friday to be washed.
Rest time is a part of every child's day at the Centre and leaves them better able to cope for the remainder of the day and exhibits higher levels of tolerance, patience, enthusiasm, friendship, laughter and participation. If a child is uninterested in napping after 30 minutes of trying to nap they can play quietly in the room.
Children in the School Age Program will have opportunities to have quiet time after lunch for 30 minutes.
