School Notes
- School Motto: Providing exceptional, age-appropriate child care in a nurturing, stable and secure environment.
- Our CHILDREN come first. They experience a safe, trusting environment that fosters the developmental stages from infancy to school age. Their needs are met and we strive to make them the best that they can be so they can reach their full potential.
- Our TEACHERS are dedicated and go above and beyond their “jobs”. They are a body of people all moving in the same direction with the same goals being the best of the best. Our teachers are educated and give young children what they need to learn and grow.
- Our FAMILIES go to work with the confidence and trust that we are an extension of them while they are gone. Your children go from your hands to ours and at the end of the day, our arms to yours.
