DIFFERENT IS AMAZING

Founded by an occupational therapist, we are excited to open a first-of-its-kind daycare for tots with special needs in Chicago's northwest suburbs. Our curriculum is rich with therapeutic supports to maximize your tot’s development. It is our hope that our students feel loved, welcomed, and understood, keeping his/her individual therapeutic goals at the forefront of everything we do. We invite you to join us at one of our many fundraising events to continue driving the mission forward!

MISSION STATEMENTS

Two of them! ...because we are here for the children AND their families.

To welcome children whose needs cannot be met by a traditional daycare and support them in a safe, engaging, and developmentally-appropriate environment.


To support parents and caregivers of children with medical and/or developmental needs by providing full-time childcare, allowing them to enter/re-enter the workforce, provide for their families, and contribute to the greater good of the community.
