Our approach
Respect, a prepared house, hands-on learning, time to settle, mixed ages, and room to grow.
Respect for the child
The daycare’s own words put love and care first, and treat each child as part of the family.
Prepared environment
A clean, safe house, set up so children can move, eat, and play without a lobby or a long hallway.
Hands-on learning
Children learn by doing, in a place set up for them rather than a big center.
Time to settle
The day runs in a house, not a lobby. Children get time to play and practice.
Mixed-age group
Infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and school-age children share one home, which is the mixed-age idea in her actual listing.
Room to grow
Families talk about children leaving ready for the next classroom, at the pace the child actually has.
