Welcome to a place filled with warmth and light, smiles and laughter, fun and fitness, love and learning. Our school offers an engaging, nurturing environment for every child, during the most critical early years, starting in infancy. By adhering to high standards, we help mold inquisitive, confident kids, who are socially, physically, and academically prepared for school. As a 21st century preschool, our STEAM curriculum brings the world into every classroom. Integrated, hands-on learning experiences in Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts, and Math provide a foundation to ensure children are prepared to navigate a changing world. As they grow, your children will need to be makers and thinkers, and that’s why this approach ensures that they thrive and develop the necessary skills to embark on their future. This school of today will prepare your child for the world of tomorrow.

In-Home daycare
I specialize in infant care and I currently am looking for new infants starting now. I offer personalized infant care in my home in a very relaxed and safe environment. I am very friendly, outgoing, bubbly, honest, trusting, and reliable. I have 3 children of my own. (13,11, and 7). In addition to them I have over 15 years of childcare experience. I truly love what I do and take great pride in my work. In my spare time I love to spend time with my family, read, watch movies, and so much more. I live in a very safe and clean neighborhood in West Des Moines. I also teach basic skills as a part of my service including: exercising, walking, talking, eating, and transferring from bottle to sippy cup just to name a few things. I am also first aid and CPR certified. Everyday your infant is with me you can count on me going above and beyond! I know it can be a tough experience leaving your new baby for the first time and sometimes it can be more stressful for the parents then the children. You can rest assure I will take care of any special requests you may have and will personalize your child's needs unlike a daycare center. I am also a clean freak. I have seen many other day cares that are not and I feel cleanliness is very important in maintaining happy and healthy children.

Amy says "For this age group it is so important to have a nurturing environment. Infants need to be touched and held which is not the case in a commercial daycare...
