Welcome to Blue Skies and Butterflies!
New expanded hours now available: 7 AM to 6 PM
Blue Skies and Butterflies is a Child development facility serving Infant/toddlers, preschool and kindergarten age children. Our campus is on an acre and half of beautiful property nestled among trees, hence the blue skies in our name. Butterflies represent the changes that young children go through with their growth and development.
Our Infant/toddlers are housed in our cottage. It has a huge covered area outside for year around play. Our Preschool and Kindergarten program is in a different building which features huge rooms with windows and lots of natural light. Both the rooms are connected to outdoor pads which are totally fenced in allowing for outdoor and indoor play at same time.
Every child is naturally creative, curious, and loves to learn. It is our job as parents and teachers to present opportunities where children can be stimulated and challenged in a positive non-threatening environment, where each can explore his imagination and discover his own innate style of learning.
We feature a dedicated, caring and well educated staff that plans and implements a child centered curriculum:
- Curriculum that focuses on self-help and social competence skills
- Developmentally appropriate curriculum
- Active learning which focuses on all senses
- A strong, highly successful phonetic reading and writing program
- Math and Science
- Art, Music and Physical Education
- Park-like setting next to a wooded area
- Classes on organic gardening
- Monthly visits by the City Librarian
