A home away from home

We pride ourselves on providing a true family feel for every child in Irondequoit. Our program offers a small, intimate environment within a spacious setting, allowing us to focus on the individual needs of each child. As an educator-friendly center, we proudly follow the West Irondequoit school calendar, ensuring consistency for families with no additional summer expenses.
