Our owner and director has worked in early childhood education for more than 30 years, moving from assistant teacher to head teacher, director and now owner. Se habla español.
Children are grouped by age: Voyagers (3 to 12 months), Explorers (12 to 24 months), Adventurers (twos), Imagineers (threes) and Expeditioners, our state-approved VPK class for 4- and 5-year-olds. We teach with The Creative Curriculum, influenced by the Reggio Emilia philosophy, and add bilingual academics, character development and mindfulness. Toddler days balance quiet activities with music, movement and outdoor climbing and running.
Our campus near I-595 and University Drive has large, bright classrooms, three outdoor playgrounds and a security guard on the premises. Doors open year-round at 6:30 a.m. on weekdays, pickup runs until 6:00 p.m., and we run an on-site summer camp for ages 1 to 10. Optional extracurriculars include music and movement, soccer, gymnastics, art, coding and robotics.
