How does drop-in daycare work
- Before leveraging the convenience of drop-in daycare, a preliminary registration of your child with the program is required. After enrollment, you're set to utilize the service whenever necessary, subject to availability. It's recommended to confirm space availability daily through a phone call or via an online booking system.
