Play-based is far from leaving a child to their own devices. A play-based approach involves child-initiated and teacher-supported learning. The educator encourages learning and inquiry through engaging with children and creating opportunities that's goal is to stratch their thinking to higher levels.

Through intentional play and a purposefully designed environment, children can develop social and cognitive skills, gain confidence and independence, and mature emotionally.

Our program closes for all major holidays. We do also close for 3 weeks out of the year, which typically falls into three chunks (one week in spring, summer, and winter). Our program believes it is important for children to have time to unwind and recharge with their families--just as adults need time away, children need that same time. A holiday calendar will be given to families upon enrollment and may be requested on tours.
