Why Families Choose Growing Roots 🌱
🎓 Education Meets Early Childhood
Growing Roots is led by an experienced educator with a background in both general and special education. We understand that children develop, communicate, behave, and learn differently — and we meet them where they are.
đź§ Purposeful Play & Hands-On Learning
Play is how young children learn best. Our classrooms incorporate sensory experiences, early literacy and math, art, STEM, fine-motor development, movement, outdoor exploration, and plenty of opportunities to learn through doing.
đź’š Children Are Known Here
We want our teachers to know more than a child's name and schedule. Understanding each child's personality, interests, strengths, routines, and individual needs helps us provide care that feels personal.
🥕 Thoughtful Care, Down to the Little Details
The little things matter to us — even what's on the menu. We make our own fruit and vegetable purées for our littlest learners and put intention into the everyday experiences children have while they're with us.
📱 You're Part of Their Day
Through Brightwheel, families receive photos, updates, messages, and important information throughout the day. We believe strong communication between home and childcare makes a difference.
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Families Are Part of Growing Roots
From Mystery Readers and field trips to family nights, celebrations, and special events, we create opportunities for families to be part of their child's experience — not just drop off and pick up.
🌱 Family-Owned & Community-Rooted
We're a family-owned center with deep roots in the Medina community. Growing Roots represents the next chapter of our family's years of caring for local children and families.
OUR PROGRAM
Programs for Every Stage of Growth
From infancy through school age, we provide nurturing care and engaging learning experiences tailored to each stage of development.
Infant
6 Weeks – 18 Months
Our infant program provides responsive, individualized care in a warm environment designed for our littlest learners. From tummy time and sensory exploration to early communication and movement, babies are encouraged to grow at their own pace — with plenty of love along the way. We even prepare fresh fruit and vegetable purées right here at Growing Roots.
Toddler
18 Months – 3 Years
Toddlers are busy discovering just how much they can do! Our toddler program embraces that growing independence through hands-on play, language development, sensory experiences, movement, early learning, and plenty of opportunities to explore. Teachers provide the consistency and encouragement toddlers need as they learn to communicate, make choices, build friendships, and navigate big feelings.
Preschool
3 – 5 Years
Our preschool program builds the skills children need for pre-kindergarten and beyond — without taking the play out of childhood. Through early literacy and math, STEM, art, sensory experiences, fine-motor activities, movement, and purposeful play, children build confidence, independence, friendships, and a genuine excitement for learning.
School-Age
5 – 12 Years
Before and after school should feel like a place children actually want to be. Our school-age program gives children time to unwind, connect with friends, create, play, and explore their interests in a welcoming environment. We also provide care on many school holidays, breaks, and other days when school isn't in session.
