We take every precaution to ensure your child is safe and secure when they spend their day with us. Our health and safety practices are based on current guidance and recommendations from the CDC, state and local officials and departments of health to ensure we maintain a safe and healthy environment. Please visit our Health, Safety & Security page for details.

We utilize the award-winning Creative Curriculum® in our classrooms, blended with the latest research into early education and brain development. Creative Curriculum® is one of the few curriculums approved by every State Department of Education in the country. Our focus is school readiness.

Our teachers are certified by the state and meet or exceed all childcare requirements. We require criminal background checks through local, state and/or federal agencies and verify educational credentials prior to employment. All teachers are trained in CPR and first aid, and complete trainings in early childhood health and safety. Teachers also complete annual professional development trainings to strengthen skills and keep apprised of the most recent research into early childhood education.

Parents are set up with an app called Brightwheel. It is super simple and easy to use! Brightwheel is a secure, online system for receiving invoices and receipts for tuition as well as paying bills digitally. The app is also how we stay connected to you with messages and a real-time feed of activities throughout the day. Once downloaded you will receive photos and videos of your child, updates on diapering, naps, meals, activities, electronic daily reports and more.

You will use your four-digit Brightwheel code to check your child in and out each day. Please do not share your code. Each person authorized to pick up your child will have their own code. Ask your Director to get you started with the app!
