* All children will rest at a scheduled time (the exception to this may be a baby or child who is overtly tired and needs extra rest on occasion)
* Children do not have to sleep, but do need to rest during the rest time
* All children need a quiet time to relax their bodies and minds so they can recuperate for the busy afternoon ahead
* Children will rest in a quiet, appropriate place where they feel safe
* Children under 24 months are welcome to nap in their own bedroom. After 24 months, children will nap together in the daycare room on cots. If your child has trouble napping in the daycare room, he/she is welcome to sleep away from their peers in one of the bedrooms
