We aim to compassionately care for our preschoolers + your entire family.

We value your family and aim to create a natural and easy experience for everyone involved.

  • We do not lock you into a 1-year commitment/contract. Life is unpredictable, things shift unexpectedly. We offer our families compassion, understanding, and flexibility when change comes. Not an invoice.
  • We do not require a large deposit to enroll.
  • We do not charge annual supply fees. Supplies that are needed along the way are purchased with your tuition payments.
  • We do not charge you by the minute if you run a few minutes late for pick-up sometimes. Life can be unpredictable, you have other things going on. We get it.

Fees are subject to change annually
