Public Service Announcements

TO: The Parents Who Pick Up Their Children Anytime Between 11:30am And 2:00pm But Especially Between 12:00 and 12:30pm.

You may not know this (especially if you just or are just about to pick up your child from the nursery) but the kids have a sleep during this time. What you may also not know (being merely parents and not professional looker-afters of kids) is that we have to put the kids the sleep when sometimes they'd rather stay awake and play or maybe cry at the top of their lungs. And we like it when they stay in Sleepy Land once they're there.

Therefore, we'd appreciate if you Shut The Damn Gate Quietly. I'm sure you're not really in that much of a rush to take your bratty sleep-deprived kid home that you can't spare an extra second to NOT SLAM IT. Also, you want to have a conversation in the foyer? Sure, go ahead. At a whisper. Or you could go into the office. Or you could take your damn kid and go. Quietly.


TO: Staff Who Work Here Who Go On A Lunch Break (ie Everyone):

You know that the kids have sleep time. You most likely just spent half an hour trying to get one of your little brats darlings to sleep. (If you haven't you should have.) When you come back, you'll want a room of sleeping darlings instead of ones hyper on not enough sleep.

SHUT THE FREAKING GATE QUIETLY.

Mkaythanks.
