Nurturing Development As They Make Their First Discoveries

Daily Routines Build Confidence & Support Growth

A consistent daily routine builds trust between your baby and their caregiver, essential for nurturing development. Individualized feeding and sleep schedules align with your home routine, making life easier and keeping your baby happy and confident in their learning.

Spanish & Baby Sign Language Build Early Language Skills

Introducing sign language helps your baby communicate their needs early, reducing frustration and boosting self-esteem. Learning a second language enhances brain development, fostering adaptability and better memory. We believe daily language enrichment is a vital step in your baby’s learning journey.

Our Loving Team Focuses On Connection & Problem-Solving

We hand-select our team members based on their patience and empathy. We ensure young children feel safe and secure as we calmly manage challenging behaviors, redirecting them into valuable learning opportunities.

Keeping Our Spaces Clean Keeps Your Baby Healthy

We safeguard your child’s health and stop the spread of germs by keeping our classrooms fresh and clean. Not only do teachers keep spaces clean and tidy, but a cleaning service comes in every evening to do a deep clean of the rooms, and to thoroughly sanitize all surface areas, toys, and stations.

Nutritious Meals & Healthy Snacks At No Extra Cost

We work with you to create a personalized feeding schedule for your baby, supporting their transition to solids and providing healthy meals and snacks at no extra cost. We supply pureed options and gently introduce new fruits and vegetables. Infants also receive Simply Right Infant Formula, included in your tuition.

A Parent-Teacher App for Seamless Communication

Stay connected with your child’s caregiver through your easy-to-use parent-teacher app. Conveniently message, collaborate, and receive updates, photos, and videos of your baby to tailor their care and keep you involved in their daily experiences.

Hear What Parents Are Saying...

My son has been attending first discovery since he was six weeks old. It has been a wonderful experience. The staff takes the time to talk to you and get to know your kid even if they are not in their classroom. The staff is well trained and experienced. They are dedicated to your child’s development. The thing I love the best is that it feels like a family. A whole set of teachers helping you along the way, always ready to give advice if you need it. I am so glad I found them for childcare for my child and would definitely recommend them to anyone who asks!

- Jennifer Tanner

From the moment our family first walked into First Discovery we knew that this was the place to leave our most precious cargo as life called us away. The administration staff strives to maintain standards of excellence for the families that they serve. They are always helpful, cheerful and welcoming. The teachers at First Discovery are truly amazing. Our daughter has been in their care since she was five months old and she has not known an unhappy day since she has been in their charge. Every staff member that we have encountered have been consummate professionals, friendly and nurturing.

- The Massie Family

The staff at First Discovery is truly wonderful, caring and patient. They accepted our son with open arms and made him feel safe, loved and confident. His teachers were always willing to speak with us about his day during pick up time. We were always please with the way he was treated and felt that they really had his best interest at heart. I would highly recommend First Discovery to anyone looking for a positive, encouraging environment for their child(ren).
