Setting Routine
Routine is a key part of how we care for the children, providing them with a sense of security and comfort. Although children may not be aware of the time, having a predictable routine helps them understand what comes next in their day, which makes them feel safe and happy. In our setting, we aim to make every day meaningful, giving the children the opportunity to grow and learn in a structured yet relaxed environment.
We encourage the children to eat, sleep, and play together, creating a chance for them to learn from one another, form friendships, and develop important social skills. By bringing these activities together, we help them build a strong sense of connection, cooperation, and belonging.
