Child’s arrival and stay

First encounter

At the moment of the enrollment the parents and their child are invited to visit the child care center stucture and to meet the staff. At the same time they will make an appointment for the progressive welcoming of the child (30 minutes adaptation session).

Progessive welcoming

For the purpose of assuring the best child-parents separation possible, we offer a progressive welcoming: this will also facilitate the child’s adaptation within the child care center. This welcoming will be adapted in function of each child and his family’s needs.

The child’s stay

The people who bring the child to the center are requested to accompany him to his own section, take his outdoor clothes off, fill in the daily contact form and make sure that the child is taken in charge by the team.

• a change of clothes
