How we see children

Early learning should be full, balanced, and joyful—not limited by hours or funding. The Creative Curriculum® fosters a love of learning through play-based activities. We believe childhood should be filled with wonder, discovery, and joy, and our families have trusted us for over 30 years.

Rooms are set up so children can move freely between play and learning. Small class sizes and consistent teachers mean your child knows who to go to. Music, Spanish, and American Sign Language enrichment round out the day, and learning continues year-round with no long summer breaks.

A visitor might notice children building with blocks or signing to a friend, and teachers sitting on the floor with them. Meals are prepared in-house and served family style. The atmosphere feels like family, with the same faces every day.

What a day looks like

Morning starts with a warm hello and breakfast. Children settle into their rooms, where teachers greet each child by name. Breakfast is included, so no morning rush to pack food. Some children head straight to play; others need a quiet minute first.

The middle of the day mixes active play in the indoor gym or outdoor area with small-group learning. Lunch is prepared in-house and served family style. After lunch comes rest time for younger children, while older ones may do quiet activities. Teachers guide children through transitions with songs and warnings.

Afternoon brings more play, often outside if weather allows. As pickup nears, children help tidy up and gather their belongings. Teachers share a quick note or picture about the day. Parents leave knowing what their child did and ate.

How we work with families

At pickup, teachers share a highlight: a new word, a tower built, a friend made. Questions are answered in person or through the parent app. Families also get daily reports and pictures for toddlers. If you need to talk longer, teachers find a time.

For the first weeks, we work with you on a gentle drop-off routine. You can call to check in, and we’ll tell you how your child is settling. Each child adjusts at their own pace, and we follow your lead on comfort items or schedules. You’ll get updates so you feel connected.

Good questions to ask first

What are the hours?

Monday – Friday 6:30 AM – 5:30 PM.

Are meals included?

Yes. Meals and snacks are served family style and included in tuition.

What ages do you take?

Children from 6 wks to 6 years.

Can we visit before deciding?

Yes, a tour is how families decide. Children can come along; while you talk, they can see the rooms and meet the teachers.

What should my child bring on the first day?

For a first day, families usually pack a change of clothes, a comfort item like a small blanket, and anything labeled with your child's name. We provide meals and snacks, so no food is needed unless your child has specific dietary needs. Teachers will let you know if anything else is helpful.

Do you offer part-time or flexible schedules?

Schedules depend on the age group and what openings we have right now. Call or email us with your child's age and the days you need, and we'll tell you what's available.

What if there is no place right now?

You can ask to be told when a place opens for your child's age. We'll keep your information and contact you if a spot becomes available.
