Website Tools and Cookies

Our website may use basic cookies, analytics tools, or similar technologies to help us understand website traffic and improve the user experience.

You can adjust your browser settings to block or delete cookies. Some website features may not work properly if cookies are disabled.

Third-Party Links

Our website may include links to third-party websites, such as social media pages, online payment platforms, registration tools, or external resources. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those third-party websites.

Data Security

We take reasonable steps to protect information submitted through our website. However, no website, email system, or online transmission is completely secure. Families should avoid submitting sensitive information through general website forms unless specifically requested.

Parent and Guardian Rights

Parents and guardians may contact us to ask about information submitted through our website, request corrections, or ask that we delete website inquiry information when appropriate.

Some records may need to be retained for licensing, safety, administrative, or legal purposes. Connecticut’s Office of Early Childhood notes that licensed child care centers must keep certain records on premises, including items in children’s files and staff files.
