Services
Preschool Program
Our NAEYC-accredited preschool program follows the High/Scope Curriculum, fostering self-reliance through structured routines and independent exploration. Certified educators guide children in goal-setting and problem-solving activities. The program includes both planned and spontaneous learning experiences tailored to individual interests.
Toddler Care
Toddler programs implement High/Scope principles through age-appropriate materials and manipulatives. Children develop emotional expression in secure environments with dedicated play areas. Certified staff supports social-emotional growth through guided interactions and creative exploration.
Infant Care
Infant care combines High/Scope methodology with specialized attention to early development. Quiet sleeping areas and large play spaces support motor skill progression. Certified caregivers facilitate crawling, walking, and early socialization through sensory-rich activities and age-grouped interactions.
Summer Camp
Summer camp extends our educational approach through nature-based exploration and outdoor activities. Children engage with natural environments via guided train rides and adventure walks, observing local wildlife while developing environmental awareness through hands-on discovery.
Wrap Care
Flexible wrap-around care provides supervised support before and after preschool hours. Morning sessions run 7:00-8:10 AM, afternoon sessions 2:10-4:30 PM. Certified staff maintains educational continuity through structured play and developmental activities during these extended periods.
