Services, Programs & Care Options

For children 5-months - 5 years old.

Our Philosophy

At My Friends & I, our services are designed to support children and families through consistent care, meaningful play, and flexible options that fit real life.

All programs are grounded in our play-based, Reggio-inspired approach and led by experienced, caring educators.

What All Programs Share

Across all services, families can expect:

• A play-first, Reggio-inspired approach
• Thoughtfully designed indoor and outdoor environments
• Experienced, attentive educators
• Strong communication with families
• A welcoming, community-centered space

“We’ve used both the regular day program and after-hours care, and the consistency has been wonderful. The environment stays calm and thoughtful no matter the time of day. Our child feels comfortable, happy, and excited to go. Touring the program made it easy to trust our decision.”

“From the moment we walked into My Friends & I, our son felt completely at ease. It was the only daycare we toured where he left our side, walked over to the other kids, and was immediately welcomed into their coloring activity. He now wakes up every day excitedly asking if he can go to “Ms. DeeDee’s house”, and as a parent, that alone speaks volumes.”

Infant & Early Toddler Care

Ages 5 Months - 2 Years

Our infant and early toddler program focuses on secure relationships, gentle routines, and responsive caregiving.

Children are supported through:

• Sensory-rich play
• Movement and outdoor time

Each child’s rhythms, needs, and cues are respected as they grow.

As children grow, learning becomes more collaborative, expressive, and exploratory.

This program emphasizes:
• Child-led, project-based learning
• Social connection and empathy
• Creative expression through materials and play
• Daily outdoor exploration

Educators observe interests and thoughtfully extend learning through meaningful experiences.
