While we ask parents to provide daily essentials, we keep extra diapers, wipes, and other supplies on hand—just in case your little one needs them.

🧸Gentle Transition Period

We offer a complimentary transition period for new enrollments to help children adjust comfortably into our environment. During this time, children attend in shorter, gradually increasing increments throughout the week.

This period is included as part of your enrollment experience and is not billed separately, as children are not yet attending full scheduled days. A deposit is required to secure your child’s space.

🎁 Parent Loyalty & Appreciation (Planned Addition)
We love recognizing the families who trust us. Enrolled parents receive exclusive perks, rewards, and appreciation surprises throughout the year — visit our Parents Appreciation page to learn more.

Why choose us?

At Snuggle and Sprout, children learn and grow in a warm, nature-inspired environment designed for exploration and connection. Our garden area encourages hands-on learning — planting seeds, caring for growing plants, and tending to our friendly chickens — teaching patience, responsibility, and respect for nature in ways no worksheet ever could. The daycare operates in a dedicated section of our home that’s fully enclosed, separate from family spaces, and primarily accessed through a private entry for safety and privacy. While a secondary entry is available for convenience, children only pass through the home when escorted to the restroom. Located near the kitchen, the daycare area allows children to remain safely visible and supervised even during meal preparation, keeping them engaged in the daily rhythm of care. Families appreciate that Snuggle and Sprout offers the best of both worlds — a clean, professional space that still feels homey, welcoming, and filled with warmth. Interaction with our chickens gives children real-life lessons in empathy, curiosity, and the cycles of nature, while our flexible hours and family-centered approach make life easier for working parents who want high-quality care without the stress of rigid center schedules.
