Happy parent teacher conference day!

This is just a quick reminder of our park play date this Saturday at Margaret Farley Park (100 Brunswick Ave) starting at 2pm. We hope you can all make it!

A number of parents have reached out looking for advice to help make the transition to school smooth for their little ones. This will be a great place to get some ideas in terms of what the school day looks like and ways we can help our children adjust and become comfy and secure.

Hope to see everyone there and if there are questions, just let us know!

Best,

Janerae and Kate
