Bungalows

Children at the Child Development Center are placed by age. Bungalows are divided by age group to provide care for infants, toddlers, and preschool-age children.

Movement between the areas (from Infants to Toddlers or Toddlers to Preschool) is based on the age of the child, as defined by the State of Minnesota Department of Health and Safety. Intra-bungalow movement (movement from the younger room to the older room in the same bungalow) is determined by the enrollment coordinator, area coordinator, and primary teachers.

Factors in addition to the age of the child, such as a developmental lag, may be considered in intra-bungalow movement if the move is requested by the parent or recommended by the staff.
