Young learners in our early learning programs are prepared for kindergarten and school success through our age-appropriate focus on personal/social, intellectual, physical and spiritual development.

Infants and toddlers are supported and encouraged by early learning professionals to discover and achieve developmental milestones in a safe, compassionate environment.

For our Prek and KinderPrep students (ages 3–6), the "Creative Curriculum" addresses different learning styles through a multi-sensory approach. The curriculum utilizes engaging lessons that invite active, hands-on participation in the areas of reading and writing, language and literacy, and numbers and math. Science, art, and music round out the core curriculum.

We ask the parents to keep the children home if they have a fever or are vomiting. If a child has strep throat or pink eye, the child must be on medication for at least twenty-four hours before returning to school. Other diseases may have longer at-home times. Please refer to the Sick Policy below.

We perform developmental evalutions and give progress reports twice a year. Parents are invited to meet with the teachers at this time, but a parent may request a conference with a teacher, or the director, at any time. 

Communication to parents comes through the Brightwheel Child Care App, class newsletters, email, teacher communication, signs, phone calls, letters, and social media.

Our staff members are trained each year in CPR and first aid and in accordance with DCYF requirements. Additionally, they are trained to call 9-1-1 in a true medical or security emergency.

We perform fire drills monthly, and earthquake and lockdown drills quarterly.
