Questions
Questions about shifts, places and the center
What ages do you take?
From 6 weeks to 5 years, in four rooms: Infants, Twos, Threes and Fours. Each room runs in both shifts.
Can we tour?
Yes. Tours run at shift change, from 2:00 to 3:00 p.m., or before your shift starts by appointment. They take about half an hour, and children are welcome to come along.
What does a day look like on each shift?
First-shift children arrive from 5:00 a.m. for breakfast, then have morning play, lunch and a rest. Second-shift children arrive at the handoff, then have outdoor play, supper, a story and a quiet hour before pickup.
What does licensed mean here?
Honeybun is a licensed child care center. Indiana's early childhood agency licenses us under its rules for staffing, space and safety.
How many children does each teacher care for?
Each room has its own number of children for every teacher. We are glad to talk it through at a tour.
How does tuition work?
Tuition depends on the room, the shift and the days a week. Elieser goes through the number for your family at the tour.
Who may enroll, and in what order are places offered?
Families from our partner plants and neighbors around the park may enroll. When a place opens, it is offered first to brothers and sisters of enrolled children, then to partner-plant families, then to neighbors, in the order families joined the list. A spot on the list moves a family up; it does not hold a place.
What if my plant runs overtime or a Saturday?
Tell us as early as you can. If you run late, your child stays with a teacher they know. For a Saturday, ask us by midweek and we reserve a time for your family.
What if my child is ill?
A child with a fever, vomiting or a contagious illness stays home and comes back after a full day of being well. If your child gets sick here, we call you and a teacher stays with your child until you arrive.
How do I join the waitlist?
Tell us the room, your plant and your shift when you tour or call. We put your family on the list and call you as places open.
Still have a question?
Call or send a message and Elieser or the front desk answers within one working day.
