FAQs

My kid has never been to daycare before and I’m not sure what to expect!

We created BabyVillage to provide an amazing environment with open, social-based care. We’re here for busy parents who don’t have or need Full-Time care. If you have a question you don’t see answered below, please don’t hesitate to call or email info@wevillage.com!

What do they do all day?

BabyVillage’s certified teachers design a specific curriculum, so kids get structure and socialization! Our teachers are loving, attentive, smart, and cater to the group!

Our locations have both different hours and different services, but all have flex care for the ease of parents! All BabyVillage locations do not currently offer traditional Full-Time care. BabyVillage Los Angeles’ part-time is 20 hours a week. BabyVillage Oregon locations have traditional Full-Time and Flex-Care services available. We do not accept infants after 6 pm at our Oregon locations.

  • Oregon: Infants 6 weeks to 12 months – 1:4

  • California: Infants under 12 months – 1:4

  • Toddler 12 months to 24 months – 1:4

  • Toddler 2 years to 3 years – 1:5

  • Children 3 years and over – 1:10

For Oregon, you do not need to bring them in for Drop-in, but do require them for Full-time. But it’s great if you can bring them in for us. We do require vaccinations. For LA, both immunization records and vaccinations are required whether or not you are using Drop-in or Full-Time. BabyVillage’s immunization rates are here and you can find the Multnomah County Immunization Rates here, Clackamas County here, and Washington County here.

Please bring a change of clothes. Don’t forget socks and if you can, please label everything! Please bring only what can fit in a small bag. Also, BabyVillage is a shoe-free facility. Blankets and other items are not allowed in cribs, so only bring a blanket for children who will not be in a crib. If your child is still in diapers, bring diapers and wipes along with anything else that your baby might need. Extra formula or breast milk is always encouraged.

We provide complimentary snacks of juice, milk, and crackers at around 9 am and 3 pm. You can purchase lunch or dinner and extra snacks! Vegetarian options are also available. If your child has a food allergy, please let us know. BabyVillage is a nut-free facility.

Socks are required, for sanitary reasons, we do not allow staff or children to go barefooted. At BabyVillage, we pride ourselves on providing a clean, sanitary environment. Shoes can be dirty and are taken off at the door to keep our floors from getting soiled. If you forget socks we can provide them for $3 a pair.

It is always a good idea to make your reservation as soon as you know you need the care. Children under the age of 2 require a 24-hour notice for a reservation to ensure proper staffing. If you’re worried and want to make sure you’re covered, we recommend making a reservation online. You can also give us a call. Saturday night and Public School closure days we are very busy. We do not accept reservations for infants past 6 pm at our Oregon locations.
We are a TV off environment during our days. We do occasionally allow an age-appropriate movie at our special parties or during our late-night care. Also available are non-violent, active Wii and iPad games, but these are rarely played as we wish to promote other forms of play.
We offer amazing sibling rates! Please chat with the director upon signing up for pricing!
‍In Oregon, if the weather permits we go on walks! If you don’t want your child to participate just let us know and a staff member will stay back with them. Los Angeles has an outdoor backyard.
‍Yes, when big kids are out of school activities will be mixed to accommodate all ages. These days are especially busy. We recommend that you book a spot.

‍No one can pick up your child unless prior consent has been given and the person picking up shows a valid photo ID. Emergency contacts can be added upon enrollment or at any visit.
We are a healthy childcare facility and at no time do we provide care for sick children. See further details in our Rules and Policies in regards to this.
We are a nut-free facility! We do not allow nuts under any circumstances. We ask that you refrain from packing food containing nuts for your children out of consideration of others. It is your responsibility to inform us of any allergies that your child suffers from. Please do so every time you visit to ensure their safety.
WeVillage & BabyVillage have the right to refuse service or determine a child is not a good fit for the environment for any reason the director or owner determines. Childcare is not for everyone, some children do better in a one on one environment. We do our absolute very best to accommodate every child’s needs.
