A Safe, Loving Environment For Your Peace Of Mind
Know that your child spends their days with attentive, CPR-certified teachers behind restricted access doors and well-built fences, all under the watchful eye of modern security cameras. Their well-being is a top priority, always.
Play-Filled Days Of Active Discovery Foster Learning
Your child learns by doing in an environment that encourages active discovery through guided hands-on lessons and free playtime to explore their interests. Play-based learning boosts their cognitive skills, communication, and creativity.
Social-Emotional Learning For Kindness, Respect, & More
Teachers model empathy, respect, kindness, and responsibility while also helping your child identify and self-regulate their emotions. Your pre-kindergartener learns to make friends, resolve conflicts, and become a trusted peer and well-mannered classroom citizen.
Highly-Trained Teachers Support Your Child’s Learning Journey
Your child’s teachers are the highest-educated in Defiance County. 95% of lead teachers hold a Child Development Associate® or higher, and 100% of assistants are Career Pathways Level 2 certified or better, so you know they learn from the best.
Small Class Ratios Mean More Personal Attention For Them
With a low teacher-to-student ratio, your child learns in a small group where their teachers genuinely know them. Teachers tailor activities to your child’s strengths, needs, and interests to help them excel.
Well-Rounded Curricula That Build Cognitive Foundations
Teachers use the trusted Learning Beyond Paper™ curriculum plus engaging STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, and math) activities to stimulate early academics and critical thinking. A Montessori- and Forest School-inspired environment allows your child to learn at their own pace.
Your Whole Family Feels Welcome With Festive Events & Seasonal Celebrations!
All-Inclusive Enrichments Like Yoga, Art, & More
Your child’s horizons get broader every day with all-inclusive enrichments like yoga, art, music, dance, and gardening. Watch your little one’s knowledge grow and confidence soar as they discover the world around them and express themselves in brand-new ways.
Spacious Playgrounds For All-Season Outdoor Play
Your child goes outdoors for fresh air and exercise on a large, age-level playground where they romp and play with friends year-round. They build resilience and stamina while boosting muscle growth and gross motor skill development.
Exciting Trips & Visitors Bring New Experiences
Field trips to the fire department, zoo, apple orchard, pumpkin patch, and the COSI museum show your child the world outside their doors. Visitors bring excitement, too, like the petting zoo, dance instructor, environmental specialist, or Dino-School social-emotional educators.
Fresh, Healthy Meals & Snacks Included In Tuition
Never worry about packing food because your child’s tuition includes tasty, nutritious daily breakfasts, lunches, and snacks. All meals meet or exceed state and federal CACFP standards, and a dedicated cook prepares everything fresh and accounts for allergies and sensitivities.
Support & Communication For A Strong Home-School Connection
Teachers communicate with you daily through the free, handy Procare® app, which integrates with Learning Beyond Paper™ so you can see all your child’s activities and milestones. Parenting courses and onsite therapies for referred children further support your family’s needs.
Sanitization & Air Purification To Help Protect Their Health
Staff clean and sanitize your child’s classroom and common areas daily with the help of electrostatic sprayers that zap germs in every nook and cranny. Air purifiers continuously remove harmful particles, irritants, and allergens to protect your child’s little lungs.
