Teaching and Learning Philosophy
We LOVE kids! It's a joy and honor to watch them learn and grow. We provide a mix of fun and structure whether its for the day, or an hour or two.
​
The owner, Melissa, has been in childcare and early childhood education for over 30 years. She has a soft spot for all of your littles, and loves to watch them grow. Melissa is great at recognizing children's individual needs and catering to their learning style.
​
Melissa has watched over 3000 children in her 30+ years, and can often pick them out of a crowd years after they have left her care. She welcomes new faces and is open to help whenever she can.
