Artisan Child Care Center & Preschool

The Infant Program serves children aged six weeks to fifteen months. Each classroom accommodates up to seven infants and is supervised by two to three teachers at any given time. Artisan's youngest participants spend their days in a stimulating, clean, and developmentally appropriate environment led by a team of nurturing educators whom develop an individualized plan for each child's care in partnership with his or her parents. Our classroom environment is filled with toys and materials that foster the development of each child's fine motor skills and provide them with substantial opportunities to engage physical development. The children experience language growth through immersion in sign language, music, and books, creating a sense of community driven by the new relationships formed with their teachers and other children. And of course, infants participate in daily music classes taught by Ms. Liz, who curates active, participatory lessons that engage each child's mind and body through music and movement activities.

The Toddler Program serves children aged fifteen months to three years. Toddler classrooms accommodate up to nine children and are led by two to three teachers at any given time. Artisan's Toddler Program supports each child's ever-developing sense of self, their growing independence, and burgeoning physical abilities through a specialized curriculum designed to help prepare children for transition to our Preschool Program. As the toddler group matures, our teachers encourage the children to begin looking at the world through different eyes, a foundational necessity for a lifetime of learning. Concepts such as number and letter recognition begin to prepare them for reading and math, while exploring and creating art through interactive, hands-on activities help them develop self-expression in the context of a fun, balanced learning environment. Toddlers participate in daily music classes taught by Ms. Liz, who curates active, participatory lessons that engage each child's mind and body through music and movement activities.

The Preschool Program serves children aged three to five years. Each classroom accommodates up to twenty children and is led by two to three teachers at any given time. Artisan maintains a classroom environment that is integral to everyday learning experiences, and all equipment, materials, and furniture is sized accordingly.
