ASTEROIDS | 3 years | Serving Bradenton, FL

Developmental Screenings Keep Your Child On Track

The Frog Street© Press curriculum and Bright Horizons® teaching standards equip your little learner with a beneficial academic, cognitive, and social head start. Assessments at the beginning, middle, and end of the curriculum ensure your student is on the right path.

Positive Learning Experiences Build Emotional Intelligence

Teachers avoid using time-outs and turn to gentle redirection instead to teach your child how to calm themselves and self-regulate. They learn communication techniques to help them identify their feelings, understand others’ emotions, and form solid, happy relationships.

Healthy, Home-Cooked Meals At No Extra Cost

Breakfast, lunch, and snacks made in-house using fresh fruit and veggies from our garden keep your little one energized all day long. Meals are well-balanced and adhere to State Food Program guidelines for optimal nutrition.

Outdoor Explorations Teach About Gardening, Recycling, & Repurposing

From planting in gardens to digging in rubber mulch and cooking in recycled handmade kitchens, your child develops an understanding of nature’s life cycles and how to repurpose items. They pour in sandboxes, play make-believe in houses, and much more.

A Clean Learning Environment Keeps The Community Healthy

Teachers wipe down toys, objects, and high-touch surfaces with non-toxic, child-friendly disinfectants to banish germs and bacteria. Hand sanitizer located throughout the center makes application easy, and classrooms are deep-cleaned at the end of the day.

Safety & Security Is A Top Priority

Tall privacy fences enclose the playgrounds and protect your child from prying eyes as they play and explore throughout the day! Security cameras installed throughout the center keep a watchful eye on the grounds to further ease your mind.
