- Both are typical high-energy children, outdoorsy, they love building and climbing, and thrive with playful engagement matched with rich learning opportunities.
- They eat a healthy and balanced variety of meals and are in great health.
- They are kind, well-mannered, growing in their independence and learning responsibility with their own tasks, including taking their dishes to the sink, putting their laundry in the hamper, and tidying their toys.
- Parents encourage this independence in the boys and empower their nanny to mirror those values.
- The 6-year-old is exceptionally bright and kind.
- Diagnosed a year ago with unspecified ADHD, he has seen tremendous improvement upon relocation to a new school.
- He thrives with calm authority and clear, step-by-step guidance.
