Day care program
Sheldon provides a safe and nurturing daycare environment for children which gives the freedom to learn and grow. This is a place of trust where friendships blossom. Children deepen their values of empathy and compassion. The entire approach is to maintain a careful balance in the day that allows the children to participate in diverse activities, while having ample time for rest and recuperation.
Our children enjoy balanced vegetarian meals, fruit, milk and healthy snacks. We avoid processed and packaged foods and encourage the children to maintain a healthy approach towards meals and snacks.
