Our Teachers
We are a mother-daughter duo with collectively 12+ years in childcare and children’s ministry.
We are trained in caring for children of all ages and preparing children to enter into school with confidence in their abilities to learn!
Philosophy
We are Montessori-inspired and our program is based on play and exploration.
We combine different aspects of these approaches for a wonderful learning experience that empowers little ones to explore on their own while having a good time and stimulating their growing minds!
We prioritize whole meals, no artificial dyes, and quality meats (grass-fed whenever possible.) Eating is a huge part of life and it should be healthy and nourishing with little treats along the way.
We use the Good and the Beautiful curriculum mainly for teaching and learning because of it’s beauty, simplicity, and variety of age-tailored activities.
Location
We are located in a beautiful, quiet and safe neighborhood in Plainfield, IL right off of Theodore and Route 59.
We are in walking distance from a park and large open field!
