While basic physical needs are met, your infant is provided with stimulating toys and activities to encourage growth and development. When weather permits, your child can enjoy playtime outside. Caregivers are knowledgeable of infant care and are warm and nurturing.

We understand that toddlers are in a very dynamic stage of life. They are busy exploring their world, learning that they are separate from parents and caregivers, and learning language and toileting skills. Our toddler care program emphasizes sensory play, gross-motor development, fine-motor development, and support in learning to play in groups.

Our preschool program focuses on the development of social competence as well as cognitive skills by incorporating strategies from Second Step and the Creative Curriculum preschool curriculums. We have two classrooms for three-, four-, and five-year-old’s. Two classrooms are mixed from three to five years old. Preschoolers learn about the concept of a safe classroom and participate in class meetings when problems arise. Additional skills in problem-solving and conflict resolution are learned as elements from Second Step are introduced by teachers.

Over thirty children participate in before and after school care as well as full-time care in the summer to allow you to work and tend to other areas of your lives more easily without children in tow. Children who participate in before/after school care range in age from five to 12 and are transported to and from Lumberg or Molholm Elementary Schools. Our program for this group follows the framework for the rest of the center but also includes regular opportunities for field trips to educational, natural, and enriching places in and around Denver. From fishing to museum visits to helping beavers build a dam, children are given experiences that they will remember for a lifetime as well as support for their success in school.
