Our programs

A place to grow,
at every little stage.

We meet children where they are, whether that's their very first week away from home or a casual drop-in Tuesday. Here's what we offer.

Program one

Infants & Toddlers

"The tiniest ones deserve the most intentional care."

From the first wobbly steps to the first full sentences, the infant and toddler years are everything. Our home environment is quiet, unhurried, and genuinely warm, the kind of place where a baby can nap without noise, a toddler can have a meltdown without judgment, and every milestone gets celebrated like the big deal it is.

We keep ratios low so every child gets real, individual attention. Feeding schedules, nap routines, and developmental milestones are tracked and communicated back to parents every day.

  • Low child-to-caregiver ratio; every baby gets held, talked to, and responded to promptly
  • Flexible feeding schedules that follow your child's rhythm, not a fixed clock
  • Daily communication: what they ate, how they slept, what made them smile
  • Gentle sensory play: water tables, sand, textures, music, and garden time
  • Secure attachment practices — same caregivers, predictable routines, safe space
  • Organic, age-appropriate home-cooked meals and snacks
Ages Newborn – 5 yrs
Hours 7:30 am – 5:30 pm
Days Monday – Friday

Program two

Drop-in Care

"Life isn't always on a fixed schedule — and that's okay."

Sometimes you need care for a day, a few hours, or just a single week while your regular plans are disrupted. Our drop-in program gives families the flexibility to use Garden Creek without committing to full-time enrollment.

Drop-in children are fully included in the day's rhythm, circle time, garden play, home-cooked lunch, and all. They're not set apart. They're just here for the day.

  • Available on a space-permitting basis, call or message ahead to confirm availability
  • Full participation in the daily program (meals, outdoor play, circle time)
  • Great for families between arrangements, traveling parents, or irregular work schedules
  • Children who've visited before settle in quickly. Familiar faces, familiar routines
  • Half-day and full-day options available
Ages Newborn – 5 yrs

Duration Half or full day
