As a parent, a break allows you to shop or to attend an appointment, to go out with your partner/friends, to train or to work, or to simply recharge your batteries. Options for you to thrive outside of your role as a parent are endless.
Children, meanwhile, take advantage of this opportunity to make new friends. They develop new social, motor, intellectual, and emotional skills through free-play or structured games. The outings organized and supervised by the educators allow children to discover or rediscover a whole new world of possibilities.
These services are available to all, but they have been set up with the following in mind :
