We will bundle up for most weather, and require families bring appropriate gear for snow, rain and wind throughout the seasons. However, we will deeply try to strike a balance staying inside when it is below 20 degrees or extremely windy. Describe your child's level of toilet independence. Is this something you'd be willing to work towards before September, when school starts?

We understand that the journey to toilet independence is not always linear, but we are here to support on the journey, rather than automatically use diapers.
