How it works

We bring the classroom to you!

Our trained staff teaches a curriculum developed by River Heights Child Care’s Reggio inspired Montessori and delivers a program designed for the home setting. Our program takes the best parts of Reggio Emilia and Montessori teaching methods and combines them to make a stimulating, educational, and most importantly, a fun experience for all of our children. We transform your living space! Our teachers utilize innovative mobile classrooms to bring the highest quality childcare to your home.

We Offer

  • Small Class sizes. Each class has up to 3 infants (ages 1-2). That is a 3:1 ratio meaning your child receives lots of individual attention from our teachers.
  • Early age infant spaces available (ages 0-1)
  • Your class rotates to each child’s home on a monthly basis. Each home is inspected for safety and cleanliness in order to be accepted into the infant child care program.
  • Our program is flexible(within agreed on operating hours)! No specified pickup or drop-off times.
  • Friend grouping.
  • Custom requests available.
  • Our services are tax deductible! Unlike most other at-home programs we issue the correct tax documents to ensure you get every dollar you are entitled to.
  • We use the BrightWheel app to send daily updates (Infant care program only)
  • We operate in 3-month blocks to ensure maximum flexibility for your schedule.
  • Spaces are always available and groups of 3 will be assigned on a first-come basis.
  • Unless friend grouping is requested, we will always try to make the groups as close to each other as possible.
