Age-Specific Programs Designed for Growth
In our nurturing Nursery program, your baby’s first year is filled with gentle play, sensory exploration, and loving care. With a low teacher-to-child ratio of 1:4, we provide the individualized attention your infant needs to thrive. From tummy time and cuddles to music and stories, we create a safe and stimulating environment that supports your baby’s earliest developmental milestones.
Our 2-year-old program builds on early foundations, introducing more complex play, problem-solving, and early literacy and math concepts. With a 1:11 teacher-to-child ratio, we foster independence, creativity, and a sense of wonder through hands-on activities and engaging interactions.
In our 3-year-old program, children continue to grow in confidence and independence. With a 1:15 teacher-to-child ratio, we provide a balance of structured activities and free play, encouraging exploration and discovery in science, math, literacy, and the arts. We focus on social-emotional skills, pre-reading and pre-math concepts, and creative expression.
Our Pre-K program sets the stage for success in kindergarten and beyond. With a 1:18 teacher-to-child ratio, we deliver a comprehensive curriculum that includes advanced pre-academic skills, literacy and math activities, science experiments, social studies, and creative arts.

Hear What Parents Have To Say...
I would recommend this daycare for anyone looking for a quality, clean and fun place to take their kids. The staff was very helpful and pleasant. The decorations are so cute and welcoming. It's a place I always felt safe leaving my little ones.
This daycare has such an amazing environment and I love seeing how the teachers interact with all the children. My son loved going there and his teachers always made me feel comfortable when dropping him off and they would tell me details about his day when I picked him up. I would definitely recommend this Daycare to all other parents!
The owner and staff are always welcoming and fun! He loves the teachers and his sweet friends he has made there! Noah is 3 1/2 now and has learned so much!!
Great daycare. Owners are knowledgeable Very clean facility. The decorations are fun. You can feel comfortable leaving your little ones there
Our daughter started going here at 9 weeks until she was 5 months. If we didn't have to move a couple hours away our daughter would still be going here. We loved Mrs. Kathy she took care of our daughter like she was her own!
We absolutely love this daycare and the teachers/owners! They are always so nice and responsive to any questions that I have.
