Flexible Scheduling

One of the key differences between Children's Corner and other preschools is flexible scheduling.

Contracts are available for M,W,F or Tu & Th morning or afternoon blocks. Blocks are 8:30 - 12:30, 12:30 - 3:30, 12:30 - 5:30 and 3:30 - 5:30. The maximum is three full days per week, 5 days 8:30 - 3:30, or the equivalent in part days. Unused contract days may be bought, sold or donated to any interested Children's Corner members on our "Time for Sale" board.

Drop-in Option

As an additional service to parents, we offer a drop-in option. Parents may extend contract time occasionally or use drop-in on days not in their contracts, but you should be aware that children who attend Children's Corner irregularly or infrequently might have difficulty feeling comfortable here. This is not usually a problem when drop-in is added to contract use, or when the child attends on a regular basis (two to three times a week), but some children do find it more difficult to come on days other than their accustomed days.
