Philosophy

At Home Away From Home, we are committed to creating a nurturing, inclusive, and safe environment where every child is seen, supported, and celebrated. We believe in the power of play-based learning and value each child’s individuality, interests, and cultural background. Our approach encourages exploration, risk-taking, and self-expression in a child-led setting. We aim to build self-confidence, creativity, independence, and trust while providing meaningful learning experiences through play. In partnership with families, we support each child’s unique developmental journey with care and intention.

About our program

At Home Away From Home, we provide a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children can learn, grow, and thrive through play and exploration. Serving children from 0 months to 10 years old, our program is designed to support each stage of development with care, intention, and creativity.

We are open Monday through Friday, from 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM, offering dependable care for working families. Our play-based philosophy encourages curiosity, independence, and joy, while fostering strong connections between children, caregivers, and families.

At Home Away From Home, we’re more than just a daycare — we’re a community where children are truly cherished and supported every step of the way.
