From the Capers
We're here to make sure your child is well cared for when you can't be there, from preschool care to school pick-ups. We actively encourage our children to explore, learn, and engage by creating amazing, enduring, and enjoyable experiences. You can visit us at any moment to observe how your child is doing thanks to our open door policy. Capers is exceptional in that we are the only nursery in the area that provide flexible scheduling over an eight-week period, making us the perfect choice for parents who are students, shift workers, or have variable work schedules. On request, we also provide (as much as is possible) additional hours. In other words, you are not charged for days that you do not reserve, including holidays and other times when your child would typically attend nursery. Going on vacation? You won't be charged if you just make careful to avoid scheduling your child for nursery on those days. Bookings that are flexible don't pay off when your youngster isn't present.
