    DEVELOPMENTAL SERVICES

    Children will not be excluded from the program enrollment because they do not use the toilet independently. Parents will be asked to provide spare sets of clothing and plenty of underwear for their child/children. Teachers will handle these situations as unobtrusively as possible.
    Children in the process of potty training may not wear pull-ups or diapers at any time during hours of attendance in our program. Parents will also be required to continue with the training at home.
