We are open Monday through Friday from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM.

We close with pay on the following major holidays:

• New Year’s Day

• Memorial Day

• Independence Day

• Labor Day

• Thanksgiving Day

• Christmas Day

We also close early on New Year’s Eve and Christmas Eve.

If more than 75% of enrolled families plan to be absent the day after Thanksgiving, the center will also close that day.

If a holiday falls on a Saturday, we will be closed the Friday before.
If a holiday falls on a Sunday, we will be closed the Monday after.

We offer full-week care in our infant classroom.
In our toddler, preschool, and school-age classrooms, families may choose 3-, 4-, or 5-day care options.

Full-time enrollment guarantees your child’s spot during all open hours. We ask families to provide a consistent schedule so we can staff each classroom appropriately.

Rates are subject to an annual increase, which will be communicated at least 30 days in advance.
Please call for current rates.

Little Explorers Child Care Center accepts payments by check or credit/debit card. Tuition is due on Tuesdays for the current week. Late payments may include additional fees, and past-due balances may result in your child not being able to attend until payment is made.

Communication is extremely important to us. When you join our center, we want you to feel comfortable sharing any concerns, questions, or feedback. Sensitive matters can be discussed privately in the director’s office by appointment.

For schedule changes, pick-up updates, or classroom questions, you may message your child’s teachers during daytime hours through the Procare App or call the center directly.

Parents are welcome to visit the center at any time during operating hours. If you would like to view a copy of our Child Care Program Plan, you may request one from the director.

There are no adjustments to tuition for missed days due to illness, holidays, vacations, or other absences. A spot is reserved for your child and cannot be filled on a short-term basis.

Please notify Little Explorers Child Care Center as soon as possible if your child will be absent so we can plan appropriately for meal counts.

Upon arrival, the adult dropping off must check the child in and walk them to their classroom. Children may not be dropped off in the parking lot or enter the building unescorted.

Our policy requires that children are supervised by an adult at all times, both inside and outside the center. No child should ever leave the building without an adult.

Little Explorers Child Care Center closes at 6:00 PM each day. Please plan to arrive a few minutes early to pick up your child and gather their belongings.

Please inform us of any allergies or intolerances your child may have. All meals—including infant pureed food—are prepared in our commercial kitchen. We follow USDA guidelines and provide breakfast, lunch, and an afternoon snack. Meal fees are included in your tuition, and menus are sent out ahead of time for families to review.

Mealtimes vary by classroom but are served within the following ranges:

• Breakfast: 7:45 AM – 8:30 AM

• Lunch: 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM

• Snack: 3:00 PM – 4:00 PM
