Ave Maria Child Development Center managed by Bright Horizons

Early Education That's More than Daycare

Welcome to Ave Maria Child Development Center & Preschool! Why our center? We like to think of ourselves as more than child care and early education, but as a community of families; where teachers help children find the confidence to learn. Here, your child can become a reader in our book corner; a grower in our garden; and a scientist or an artist in our outdoor STEM lab and Art Studio. For moms and dads we also have an active parent partnership group with educational discussions and extended hours for those who need to work a little later. We would love to have you call and schedule a virtual tour!

Health, Safety, and Wellness at Our Center

Your child’s safety and wellness is our top priority. We continue to monitor state and local public health guidelines, look to our medical expert, and use our considerable experience to guide our health and safety practices. Our centers take important steps to ensure the very best for every child, and the Health and Wellness portion of our World at Their Fingertips® curriculum incorporates lessons about these essential topics into every classroom, every day.
