Every 6-8 weeks, there will be a potluck in my home so the children can show what they have created and learned. This will also give parents the opportunity to make suggestions or ask questions. Siblings, relatives, and friends are welcome!

All food and most supplies (diapers, wipes, insect repellant, sunscreen, etc.) are provided. All of the products that I use are natural and highly rated at http://www.cosmeticsdatabase.com/. I use "green" disposable diapers and welcome cloth diapers (I cloth diapered both my boys).

I keep a lacto-vegetarian kitchen (we eat dairy, but no meat or eggs) and can accommodate other specialty diets such as vegan and gluten-free. I only use natural ingredients, which are mainly organic.

I only use non-toxic cleaners in my home and most certainly only organic gardening solutions and fertilizers.

My home is a breastfeeding-friendly place. Mothers are welcome to nurse their child when dropping off and when they pick up.
