A Quick Note on Phone Calls
If you call the center and we aren’t able to answer right away, please leave us a quick voicemail! During the day, our top priority is being fully present with your children—whether that’s facilitating a breakthrough during a session, providing extra hands-on support, or keeping everyone safe and engaged. We check our voicemail inbox regularly throughout the day and will get back to you as soon as our hands are free. Leaving a message helps us prioritize your request and return your call much faster than a missed call without a message. Thank you for partnering with us to keep our focus right where it belongs: on your amazing kids!
Summer Fun Fridays
***PLEASE NOTE SOME CHANGES BELOW - BURTON AND BRIGHTON SCHEDULES DIFFER SLIGHTLY***
Each Friday in the summer, we plan for an extra fun activity and a dress up day. All the dress up days are designed to be simple ones you can do with things you have at home, please don’t feel obligated to buy anything to make this happen. Staff and children will both participate in dressing up!

New Software Coming Soon!
We are excited to share that our center is transitioning to iCare, a management software designed to streamline our communications, scheduling, and student records.
Over the next several weeks, our staff will be working behind the scenes to set up and update all student and family profiles. As we enter this information into the system, you may receive automated email notifications or invitations from iCare.
Please feel free to disregard these emails for now! To keep things simple and ensure everything is fully configured, we ask that you hold off on logging in or creating your account until we have completed the setup process.
Once all profiles are fully updated, we will send out an official announcement with clear instructions on how to log in, review your account, and confirm that your family's information is correct.
Thank you so much for your patience and support as we make this upgrade to better serve your family! If you have any urgent questions in the meantime, please feel free to reach out to our office managers by calling 810-344-8082 ext. 1 for Brighton, ext. 2 for Burton.
