Infants
Unfortunately, we are not accepting anymore infants into our care or waiting list at this time.
Toddlers
Ages 12-24 months
At this age, children are encouraged to explore and engage their world through play and observation. All the senses will be involved to help teach communication skills. Language reinforcements and songs are used to encourage speech.
Preschool
Ages 2-3 year-olds
Each day these little ones will be engaged in a small period of focused learning. Throughout their times of play what they have learned will be reinforced through games, books, songs and conversations.

Pre-K
Ages 4-5 year-olds
At the head of the group, children at these ages will be given "leader" roles in group activities and songs, and will have a separate time of learning in the morning of each day. They will be directly engaged in group activities and encouraged to learn new age appropriate skills of all kinds.

Our Approach
Here at Head and Heart Childcare, we believe that children develop best in environments where they experience connection. Due to this, we seek to connect with each child individually, going beyond simply meeting their basic needs and keeping them safe. We do this through vocalizing feelings at all ages, teaching and modeling mindfulness, and loving each child right where they are at. Compassion, Kindness, Understanding and Gentleness characterize all of our interactions.
