How many children are in each group? Is there the possibility that my child will be left out because she/he is shy? |
| |
| Each group is made up of no more than 15 children. Being shy is not a reason to be left out at our centers. We view this as an opportunity to work with the child and the family members through our social skills program. Furthermore, we encourage family involvement to assist in bringing out the unique qualities of each child. |

If my child has special needs, can he/she participate in the GO-KIDS-GO! Program? |
| |
| Yes, all children can participate in our program. At Happy Kids Byron, we have professionals that support the teachers with the inclusion process so we can provide the best service to every child. To enroll in the program, parents and child must have an initial interview to determine if the program is going to be adequate for the child. If we find we are not able to fulfill all of the childs needs, the family will be referred to a more adequate program. |
