About Us
At our center, we’re committed to providing a safe, nurturing, and enriching environment where every child can learn, grow, and thrive. Licensed by the State of Montana and recognized as a STAR 2 facility, we uphold the highest standards of early childhood education and care. Our team is guided by a child-directed, educational approach that encourages curiosity, confidence, and a lifelong love of learning.
We believe children flourish when they are surrounded by consistency, compassion, and expertise. Our staff follows a strict non-smoking policy, maintains exceptional longevity, and brings a genuine love for the children and families we serve. With over 30 years of administrative experience in early childhood education—and both our Director and Assistant Director holding Master’s Degrees in Early Childhood Education—your child is supported by a highly qualified and dedicated team every step of the way.
Our facility features four thoughtfully designed classrooms, each dedicated to high-quality early learning experiences. We strictly follow, and often exceed, required teacher-to-child ratios, including a 4:1 ratio in our 0–24 month classrooms to ensure individualized attention and meaningful connections.
We are also proud participants in the Child and Adult Care Food Program, offering wholesome, nutritious meals and snacks daily—everything from homemade baby food and breads to fresh or frozen fruits and vegetables.
Looking ahead, we’re excited to be working toward a partnership with Opportunities, Inc. to support both Early Head Start and Head Start, expanding opportunities and resources for families in our community.
Clean, caring, committed, and education-focused—our center is a place where children feel safe, loved, and inspired to learn. We are honored to be a part of your child’s early learning journey.
