School Pick Up And Drop Are Made Easy

Your child is walked to school and picked up every day, giving you peace of mind so that you can feel confident in their safety and care. Rest easy knowing that they have assistance in their transitions when you’re unable to be there in person.

Play-Based, Child-Led, And Structured Learning

Your child engages in fun, self-led learning based on their interests, helping them build their cognitive skills and nurture healthy relationships and develop a sense of independence.

A Nature-Based Environment Encourages Daily Discovery

Your big kid is never too old for nature! Outdoor playscapes are the ideal setting to learn as your child interacts with both the environment and their peers. Large open-air spaces and sand and mud pits give them unlimited play options in the fresh air and sunshine.

Self-Led Learning Will Sharpen Your Child’s Mind

Your child comes up with their game plan through self-led learning and is hands-on when it comes to choosing what will fill their time. Teachers help them build cognitive skills and discover the world around them as they practice decision-making.

Enlightened Beginnings has been a perfect fit for our family for over 3 years now! The kids get so much time outside, and are always engaged in active learning without even realizing it. They are pumped to go to daycare and come home excited to share what they did. The staff are all so kind, and the flexibility really works for our ever-changing schedule. I can't imagine life without this awesome facility!

The Staff at Enlightened Beginnings are amazing! They made the transition to daycare so easy for my son and I when I went back to work. He loves being there, is constantly coming home with new skills and words he’s learned! They truly care about the kids and I feel so confident leaving my little guy in their care! Would 10/10 recommend them!

We have been with Enlightened Beginnings since day 1. The staff is wonderful, we absolutely love them all. Our youngest started as a 1 year old and has moved up through all of the classes, she has learned so much from each of her teachers. She is always so excited to go to school, and on her days at home she asks if she can go there instead! They provide the best care, and give her the attention she needs. Everyone there offers kindness and respect to the kiddos. They are also very quick to address any issues that might arise, and are always accommodating.

The Enlightened Beginnings daycare is amazing. We have two children that attend the daycare and they love it there. Mary Ellen and all the staff are great with the children and the programming is well planned. The flexibile scheduling works so well for our work schedules. And the daycare has been supportive and accommodating during Covid as well. We highly recommend this daycare to families!

This daycare is beyond amazing, my kids have been going for almost three years now and they both love it . My son started when he was 12 months and loves going everyday. They teachers are great and wonderful with the kids, they spend lots of times outside and doing free play which I love and they do all sorts of crafts and stories and I can’t say enough of how amazing it is. Your kids would be lucky to go there. Mary Ellen is just awesome 🙂
