Late Birds offers flexible and reliable childcare on all school days from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Depending on your needs, you may decide which days per week your child will come to Late Birds. The costs of our care is calculated depending on your choice of our Mini or Maxi Package. A Mini Package is 1 to 2 days of childcare a week and a Maxi Package is 3 to 5 days of childcare per week.
In addition, Late Birds offers extra care on days when there are Parent/ Teacher Conferences, early dismissals, and some American holidays. During the summer vacation we plan at least one summer camp during the last week of vacation in order for the children to meet some Late Birds friends before school starts again.
