At C&M, we believe that learning should be an enjoyable experience for every child. That's why we've designed our program to make sure that our students have fun while they learn. Our play-based curriculum is tailored to meet each child's individual needs and interests, ensuring that they're always engaged and excited about the learning process. We also place a strong emphasis on social and emotional development, providing a safe and nurturing environment where every child can thrive. By choosing C&M, you're giving your child the opportunity to gain important knowledge and skills while doing activities they love. Join us today and see the difference that our approach can make!

Our classrooms operate on a carefully crafted schedule that ensures every child gets an equal opportunity to utilize our gym space. The day usually starts between 9-9:30am, followed by lunch at 11:30am, and a nap time from 12-2pm. This routine ensures that the children have ample time to play, learn, and rest, thereby promoting their development.

Our preschool curriculum is designed for children between the ages of two and four years old. It's important to understand that children in this age range undergo significant developmental changes every year. At this stage, preschoolers are mostly motivated by their sense of identity. Psychologists have recognized that understanding how self-identity develops in children can help us understand how they build relationships, develop behavioral traits, and how certain events can impact their self-esteem.
When it comes to three-year-olds, they are still learning to become independent and they want as much control in their lives as possible. It's important to give them the space to do so. For example, allowing them to pick out their outfit for school may take longer than you expect, but it's worth it. Similarly, waking up a few minutes earlier to let them decide what they want to eat for breakfast can help them feel more independent. Allowing your child to be more independent when they are ready is great for their development.
What our parents are saying!

"My son started at C&M about a year ago with Miss Hannah and Miss Melissa. They were AMAZING! I was nervous starting since it was his first time in a daycare setting, but they quickly put my mind at ease. They loved him like he was their own, and I will be forever grateful for them. He just recently started with Miss Megan and Miss Katy, and they are just as amazing! He is coming home daily telling me about all the fun activities he did and how much he loves his teachers and school in general. He is learning new things everyday, and he is having fun while doing it! I am so thankful to have found C&M and wouldn’t want him anywhere else!"

"We cannot say enough great things about C&M, especially the Prep program. Miss Traci, Miss Kamy, and Miss Tomi are wonderful and supportive teachers. They are creative, engaging, and a real asset to C&M."

"C&M has been a wonderful place for our child over the last year. We’ve transitioned from toddler daycare into toddler preschool, and throughout the journey the leadership and staff have always acted in the best interest of our child - from making sure she wasn’t being under challenged to helping through tough transitions. We can tell our child enjoys the time there with teachers and friends from the stories and mentioning of everyone by name at every turn. Like all daycares there can be turnover and bumps in the road, but C&M has always had a plan, been highly responsive and above accountable. We couldn’t be happier with our choice."
