Everything we do at Day Early Learning is aimed at nurturing each child’s social, emotional and educational needs. Our ultimate goal is not only to prepare your child for kindergarten, but also to inspire a lifelong learning journey. Well-educated and trained teachers ensure that your child will be in the best hands possible.

I have been at Day Early Learning for a little over one year.

There was a child who I was helping as they were learning to talk, and all my work felt most worthwhile the moment they finally said my name for the first time.

My coworkers make everything better. It’s been really nice being able to learn and grow with them, and over a short time we’ve become like family.
