  3. Which ages do you take, and how does a new child settle in?
  4. What are the daily hours and closure dates, and is there care before or after?
  5. What does a year cost in total, and when could our child start?

On a visit, watch how adults talk with children, how play and rest are set up, and how staff handle a hard morning.
