In Their Safe, Nurturing Home-Based Environment

Responsive Care That Matches Home Routines

Your child is unique, so they deserve care that caters to their individual needs. They nap when sleepy, feed when hungry, and play on their schedule — just like at home. Matching home routines makes life easier for you and your baby.

Establishing Connection & Trust With Your Baby

Training from Teachstone’s Making the Most of Childhood Interactions helps teachers identify and respond to your baby’s cues to build trust, connection, and cognitive stimulation. Teachers narrate to your baby, tour the environment, and provide them with enriching language and sensory experiences every day.

Sensory Play Enhances Early Brain Development

Sensory play is one of the key learning pathways for brain development and it begins in the infant room. Your baby learns by exploring touch, sight, smell, taste and sound to enhance development while strengthening movement, balance, and spatial awareness.

Always be connected to your baby’s day with your Brightwheel™ parent app. Connect with teachers, get daily progress reports and real-time updates, schedule conferences, pay tuition, and receive adorable pics and videos of smile-worthy memories and milestones.

Baby Signing Boosts Early Communication

Your little one uses baby sign language to communicate their needs and feelings through simple gestures and facial expressions. Dedicated teachers give your infant the tools and confidence to interact with others, navigate their world comfortably, and minimize communication frustration.

Being Outdoors Brings Them Closer To Nature

Your baby spends time outdoors every day to get fresh air and explore their natural environment in a safe, fenced-in yard. They see birds and bugs, feel the soft grass, and strengthen their muscles and motor skills with tummy time.

Experienced Teachers Engage Your Little One

There’s no shortage of loving interaction around here! Passionate, certified teachers trained to recognize developmental milestones engage your happy baby with plenty of stories, music, songs, cuddles, outdoor exploration, and activities encouraging physical and cognitive growth and development.

The Prepared Environment Encourages Independence

Your little one freely explores a calm, soothing Reggio-inspired space designed for little hands and curious minds. Baby-sized furniture and equipment and age-appropriate learning materials and activities give your infant an early start to independence, self-reliance, and positive self-esteem.

High-Quality, Montessori-Inspired Materials Capture Their Curiosity

Toys, tools, and furniture made from natural materials fascinate your little one without overstimulating them. These materials foster curiosity as your baby safely explores and discovers their homelike environment with soft rugs, comfy chairs, and easily accessible toys and learning tools.

I can definitely see the difference between addy's academic success and Landon's due to the preschool environment. They both are thriving but your knowledge and attunement to their needs made a difference. Both love school and wouldn't have it any other way but I can see a difference. Through my research in my PhD program, I know the importance of what an early start makes. You are incredible!!!

Finding Cindy and CCYL is one of the luckiest things that has ever happened to our family. The atmosphere at CCYL is progressive and accepting. It would be a great place for families of all colors and beliefs. The food there is really good! It's healthy, delicious, and homemade, and it has helped us encourage our child to eat a wide variety of things. We can't say enough good things about CCYL.

From age 15 months until he turned 5, our son was steeped in kindness and affirmation, filled with delicious, home-cooked foods, and encouraged to explore with all senses and express his thoughts and emotions appropriately. Cindy’s Center played an essential role in making our child a peacemaker and global citizen.

Cindy had a very intentional way of speaking to and interacting with the children. The training she received through Making the Most of Childhood Interactions. As the children played and interacted with each other and with Cindy, she supported both their language and mathematical development. Cindy constantly surveys the scene for opportunities to pick up a child’s action or statement for further exploration.
