Our classrooms
Four rooms, one big childhood
Children move up through our classrooms as they grow — each one designed for their stage, staffed by teachers who know their names and their favorite books.
Younger Toddlers
1 year old by Sept 1
First friendships, wobbly steps and busy hands — a room built for exploring everything.
Older Toddlers
2 years old by Sept 1
Words exploding, imaginations on overdrive. Circle time, art, and plenty of wiggle room.
Pre-K
3–4 years old by Sept 1
Kindergarten-readiness through play: letters, numbers, friendship skills and confidence.

About us
A church basement that’s anything but quiet
You’ll find us upstairs in St. Thomas Memorial Church at 378 Delaware Avenue — stone walls, big windows, and rooms full of color (and noise, the good kind).
“I am THRILLED to begin this next great adventure with all of you!”
