Frequently Asked Questions
Hours?
Kind Elephant is open Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Late pick-up until 6:00 p.m. is available as an add-on — it must be arranged in advance and is charged separately. We also offer evening and weekend stays by individual request — please call or text us to learn more.
Ages?
We lovingly care for children from 6 months to 4 years old, with programs gently tailored to each stage of your child's growth.
Naptime?
We honor every child's natural rhythm. Our littlest ones nap as often as they need, and toddlers rest once or twice a day. Naptime is always calm, cozy, and guided by your child's own needs.
Meals?
We serve fresh, wholesome food made from natural ingredients. Each day includes two warm meals — breakfast and lunch — along with two light snacks in between. Everything is shared together in a calm, cozy setting. Please let us know about any allergies or dietary needs.
A Typical Day?
Our days follow a gentle Montessori-inspired rhythm — morning songs, sensory play, yoga, outdoor time, and quiet rest. Children also help tend our little garden, planting, watering, and harvesting along the way.
Outdoor Time & Outings?
Time outdoors is at the heart of our day. We play in the garden, breathe fresh air, and enjoy gentle nature-based activities together. Parents are always notified in advance of any outings beyond our space.
Group Size?
We keep our group small on purpose — no more than 12 children — so that every child receives the deep, personal attention they deserve. This allows us to truly see, understand, and nurture each little one.
Enrollment?
Spots are limited and fill quickly. If you'd like to enroll your child at Kind Elephant, please reach out early to check availability and schedule a visit — we'd love to meet you.
