Cuddle Time Preschool
Welcome to Cuddle Time Preschool.
We believe in an unhurried, play-based program that allows social connections and open ended opportunities of learning. We believe that play is the foundation for future school success and set up an environment that blends the concepts of learning and play with real-life experiences.
With over 1800 sq. ft. of 100 percent preschool space we make learning fun while getting children school ready. Outdoor experiences daily, with beautiful outdoor environments full of creative, open-ended experiences. We garden, enjoy doves/finches/guinea pigs/rabbits and a four happy chickens along with running/climbing/and sand play. We offer a no TV environment and provide wholesome, kid-enjoyed USDA meals.
Lovingly supporting families since 1987 (yes over 30 years!), we believe relationships with our families are immensely important.
The Cuddle Time Philosophy
Learning is a natural, joyful experience. Children learn by playing, experimenting, exploring and testing. Children flourish when the process of discovery is lovingly encouraged and gently reinforced. This is the philosophy by which we create not only the opportunities we offer but the environment itself. We believe each child has unique interests and talents and all children need opportunities to be responsible. Our staff work to create avenues of opportunities in your child's day that support our beliefs that children deserve to have "a childhood to remember" and to create a foundation of learning and social skill development that will support the journey through elementary school.
"I am always in awe of Cheryl's dedication to exploring a variety of sensory learning experiences for the children. She is always looking for ways to allow the children to investigate and share their own personal interests. Cheryl dives into whatever the children show an interest in and much more.
When I think of Cheryl and Cuddle Time, I think of a second family for my children."
"If I could give 10 stars I would! I'm a first time Mama, and luckily I got to stay home with my son until he was 2. Then it was time for me to find child care for my precious boy. Not only did my son not want to leave at the first visit, but neither did I.
From the bunnies, Guinea Pigs, Finches, koi fish, balanced meals, picture texts, daily report card, take home art projects, outside school events, to the best staff, I wouldn't trust anyone else with my most beloved boy!
Cuddle Time for 1 year, and will use them until he graduates into Kindergarten."
"We love Cuddle Time Preschool! Ms. Cheryl and her staff of teachers are nurturing and loving. They are patient with our daughter and celebrate her and her learning. All of the teachers feel like family to us. We are so grateful for their flexibility with us and the care that they show "This place is a real gem."
"I am a Gramma, a friend's referral led us to Cuddle Time, her child had been there a few years and she has nothing but positive things to say. We all loved Cheryl right away, including our sweet girl. Going to Cuddle Time to see Ms Cheryl is what gets her motivated in the morning. She is thriving.
Cheryl and her team are developmentally appropriate, encouraging, warm, loving and creative. They foster friendships, assist in navigating the trouble spots of being a kiddo, offer guidance and are tolerant of individual choices. Indoor and outdoor play areas have to be seen to be appreciated - they are a child's imagination come to be."
"One of our favorite things about Cheryl is that she makes sure the kids get outside everyday. Even on the rainiest of days, they may only run out and run right back in, but that shows use that she understands that it is important for the kids to get out."
