Our Childcare Rooms: A Safe Environment for Your Child’s Development

Preschool Room

The preschool room is a very busy place filled with children ranging in age from 3-5 years. Everyone is welcome to come and explore our Preschool room. From our small manipulatives to gross motor exercises and fun artwork that is proudly displayed throughout the room, there’s always something fun and exciting to do and things to learn from. Our most popular area is our loft area. This is a separate upstairs play area that is set up like a house. We use a planned theme-based curriculum based on the children’s likes to help each child grow socially, emotionally, physically, and cognitively.


Our morning arrival is from 6:00 am-8:30 am. During this time, the children play with table toys and are offered a healthy breakfast. Small group begin at 8:30 am and goes until our snack time at 9:00 am. After snack, we have our open areas; children are allowed to choose from the many available areas. Our large muscle is from 10:30 am to 11:30 am. Weather permitting, we go outside to the playground. If we must stay inside, our activities to get the sillies out range from dancing and music to exercising, obstacle courses, and fun games that allow the children to move around.


After a long day, we like to settle down with a story and get ready for everyone’s favorite part of the day: lunchtime! At 11:30 am, we eat a delicious lunch together in our classroom, and we serve our food family style. Everyone is encouraged to try new and healthy foods. Once our bellies are filled, nap and quiet time starts at 12:30 pm and goes until 2:30 pm. Once everyone’s batteries are recharged, we get up and have an afternoon snack at 3:00 pm. Weather permitting, we get to go back outside at 3:15 pm.


From 3:00 pm -5:30 pm begins our second shift arrivals. We say goodbye to the children that have been here during the day. Small group and free choice goes from 4:30 pm until 6:00 pm. At 6:00 pm, we clean up our toys and enjoy a yummy and healthy dinner. From 6:30 pm until 8:00 pm, the children are allowed to explore the areas in the room. At 8:00 pm, a night snack is offered, and then the children brush their teeth, put on their pajamas, have a story, and settle in on their mats to rest until they are picked up. Our fun-filled day finally comes to a close at midnight.

4K/School-Age Room

Our 4k/school-age room is always filled with lots of fun activities and laughter. The children in this room range in age from 4-12 years. We follow two different schedules in the 4k/school-age room, one during the school year and one during the summer.


During the school year, the children that come in the mornings are here between 6:00 am and leave for school around 8:00 am, some earlier and some a little later, depending on the school they attend. We transport to several schools in the area. The children come in in the morning, are offered a healthy breakfast to jumpstart their learning day, and are allowed to play with table toys and do other activities until they leave for school.


Our after-school arrival goes from 2:30 pm -3:30 pm. At 3:30 pm, the kids are usually starving, and they are offered a nutritious after-school snack. After that, the teachers sit down with those who need help and work on homework, and the other children have free choice. Weather permitting, we get to go to the playground or the park around 4:00 pm. If we can’t get outside, we do large muscle activities, including dancing, exercising, or active games. At 6:00 pm, the kids get to sit down for a hearty dinner. Once dinner is done, the areas are available until 8:00 pm. At 8:00 pm, a nighttime snack is offered, and then the children brush their teeth, put on their pj’s, and rest until they are picked up for the night.

During the summer, our schedules are different as our kids are here all day instead of at school. Arrival is from 6:00 am to 8:30 am, at which time breakfast is offered, and table toys are played with. At 8:30, we cleaned up and had group time. During our group time, we talked about the different things we will be learning about. Children are encouraged to share stories, and on a field trip day, the children that are going on the field trip get ready to go. We eat morning snacks at 9:00 am.


Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, we make field trips each week during the summer. We take two vans with us and can take 15 children for the day on the trip. We try to get everyone on at least one, if not two, field trips during the week, depending on the child’s schedule. Most field trips go from 9:30 am and last until 3:00 pm. The children are packed with lunch, and we picnic at the park after our field trip is complete. The children that stay back from the field trip usually do theme-related activities such as science experiments and small team activities that teach and encourage them to work together.


Weather permitting, outside time is from 11:00 pm-12:00 pm. During this time, the children are able to play in our big sandbox, play basketball, ride scooters, go for walks or to a park, and have a water play day on Friday. During water play, the kids get their swimming gear on, and they get to run through our sprinklers. Lunch is eaten at 12:00 pm. This is served in a family style, and everyone is encouraged to try all the yummy and healthy foods. After lunch, we have a quiet time from 1:00 pm to 2:30 pm. During this time, the children are encouraged to read, play board games, and work on theme-related activities. At 3:00 pm, the afternoon snack arrives.


After this, children have free choice. Weather permitting, we once again get back outside at 4:30 pm. Dinner is eaten at 6:00 pm. After dinner, the children are able to have free time to explore the room and socialize with their friends until 8:00 pm. Between 8:00 pm and 9:00 pm, a night snack is served. After this, the children brush their teeth, put on their pajamas, and relax on a mat until they are picked up for the day.

Toddler Room

Here, we focus on the basics plus more. Each day, we practice communication, hygiene, social skills, and independence. Through music, art, play, and reading, we learn about ourselves and others. Each child learns at their own pace and discovers the world around them with the tools they enjoy the most. We use holidays, special occasions, personal achievements, and anything else as a reason to play and learn at any time of the year.

Infant Room

Here in the baby room, we get to enjoy many firsts for the children. We start the day off by talking to the parents about how their child’s night or day has gone so we, as teachers, can help the kids get off to a great start for the day. The babies enjoy playing throughout the day. Through this play, the teachers observe the children and plan individual or group activities to help them reach their goals.
