Heart and Mind Preschool is a creative learning environment where children are encouraged to explore the world and construct personal meaning of it through experiences, experimentation, and exploration of the surrounding environment. Our program also strives to teach and foster the principles of faith in God while providing the necessary tools to facilitate learning, problem-solving, and creativity. Our curriculum instills a foundation of biblical principles and applied scientific thinking through Montessori methods and STEM activities. Children explore the outdoors regularly in a fenced-in outdoor space with access to nature trails. Daily activities include dramatic play, circle time, reading Bible stories, art, cooking, music, nature walks, field trips, gardening and much more.

In our childcare, we have mixed aged groups so children vary in age from zero to five. Our daily lessons and activities are personalized to meet children at their respective developmental stages and ability level. We also strive to create a culturally proficient environment by embracing our students’ cultural backgrounds and home languages. . Our lessons include reading books that are representative of our students’ diversity and learning about different holidays that are representative of our students. For example during the winter season we discuss Kwanzaa, Hanukkah and Christmas.
Thoughts of the Heart & Mind Children's Cottage is a warm and fun place in which I have seen my 2-yr-old granddaughter thrive. She loves going to see her friends and has really developed great social skills and increased her vocabulary. This is a place where she is encouraged to do things for herself and learn through experimenting. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for high quality childcare.
I can’t say enough positive things about Patricia and her daycare. I 100% recommend her to anybody looking for childcare.
Patricia is the best! She has been incredible with our toddler. She is a great communicator and is willing to do anything she can to meet the individual needs of our child. We love the program and activities. Most importantly, we love how Patricia interacts with the kids
