Rhinos
Welcome to Rhinos! As your little one's independence grows, so does their interactions with peers and teachers. Teachers guide children through new communication skills as children begin to play alongside classmates.
...
Children transition to Rhinos at 19 months as they are becoming more verbal and begin to express their desires through words. Rhino teachers help your child to effectively communicate and fulfill some of their own basic needs.
LEARNING
Rhinos continue to take part in our early childhood curriculum. For Rhinos, this includes building speech skills and beginning to effectively communicate basic wants and needs with teachers. Rhinos have daily circle time, and weekly themes build upon new knowledge.
DIAPERS
Diapers are changed at least every 2 hours, and more often as needed. Parents are responsible for providing diapers, wipes, diaper cream, and extra clothes. Our diaper changing areas are sanitized after every diaper change, and teachers wash their hands between changing each child.
SLEEPING
Rhinos take 1 nap in the afternoon Parents are responsible for bringing a nap mat and blanket for their child to use during nap time. Teachers sit next to the children as they sleep, and often pat or rub the child's back as they fall asleep. Even if children do not nap, this time is treated as a quiet rest time.
