Our nurturing approach values curiosity, kindness, and creativity, believing that learning is best achieved through play and meaningful connections with both peers and caregivers.

Sandy is amazing and provides a safe and enriching environment for the kiddos. My daughter truly enjoyed her time at Tender Years.

Tender years is a loving, nurturing, educational preschool and day care! We sent both of our kids there from 6 months to age 5/kindergarten and could not have been happier. They both were happy, well adjusted, and ready academically for kindergarten when they finished. Sandy, the owner, is wonderful and has decades of experience - a true baby whisperer!
