From Cradle to Crayons is a year-round childcare facility.. We do, however, have several closures throughout the year. These closures include:

• Thanksgiving and the following Friday

• Christmas week

• New Year’s Day

• Fourth of July week

• Labor Day

• Memorial Day

• In-service days (one Friday every other month)

In order to give our year-round students a “summer vacation” experience, our programming shifts towards that of a summer day camp while the public schools are on break. This impacts what we plan for our students, but does not affect the parent side of things at all!

At From Cradle To Crayons, we adhere to the state-required guidelines for ratio…and then some! The required ratios are:

• 4:1 in the infant room

• 5:1 in the toddler room

• 10:1 in Preschool & Pre-K

We view the state ratio guidelines as a starting point, making sure to keep classrooms staffed and teachers supported to whatever extent will best help our students thrive.

Yes! Our infants and wobblers nap according to each individual student’s schedule, while the Toddler and Preschool classes have rest time between 12:30 and 2:30. The Pre-K class does not nap, but students are able to join the Preschool class for rest time if parents request.
