Your child deserves more from childcare.
Where every child is loved, nurtured, and prepared for lifelong success.
We exist because families deserve better childcare.
We built Northstar to offer the kind of childcare we wanted for our own families — loving teachers, proven curriculum, excellent communication.
We are setting the standard.
What Makes Northstar Special
Curriculum That Starts from Day One
We don’t wait until preschool to start learning. From infancy on, we use proven curriculum and intentional routines to nurture curiosity, communication, and confidence.
Teachers Who Love and Lead
Our teachers aren’t just warm — they’re skilled. With ongoing training and deep care for every child, they act as strong role models during the most important years of life.
Real-Time Video. Daily Messaging. Excellent Communication.
From daily updates to live video access through WatchMeGrow, we keep you in the loop — because trust starts with clear, consistent communication.
Every Detail Matters — Especially Safety
We hold ourselves to the highest standards in cleanliness, licensing, and care. Through regular audits, coaching, and clear policies, we make sure your child is safe, seen, and supported every day.
Meals Made from Scratch
Our children eat nutritious, balanced meals made from scratch. Because, healthy bodies lead to healthy minds.
Programs Designed for Every Stage of Early Childhood
Infants
Warm, responsive care that nurtures trust, connection, and early development. With cozy spaces and attentive teachers, your baby is safe, soothed, and stimulated from the very beginning.
Toddlers
Busy minds and busy bodies need room to explore. Our toddler classrooms support early language, motor skills, and social-emotional growth — all through play and gentle guidance.
Preschool
A joyful, engaging environment where your child builds the confidence and skills they need for kindergarten — and life. Our curriculum blends literacy, math, social skills, and character-building in a way that’s both fun and foundational.
At Northstar, we don’t just earn enrollments — we earn trust.

Answers to the frequently asked questions.
What makes Northstar different from other childcare centers?
At Northstar, we’re not a daycare — we’re an early learning center. That means everything we do is centered on preparing children for lifelong success through rich educational experiences. We combine a warm, nurturing environment with a research-backed curriculum, highly trained teachers, and a culture built around care, communication, and excellence.
Is it true parents can actually watch their kids in the program?
We provide a range of green energy solutions, including solar power systems, wind turbines, energy-efficient appliances, and smart home technologies to enhance energy sustainability.
How do you ensure children are safe and cared for?
We believe every child deserves a premier early education experience. Northstar tuition is intentionally priced below the regional average while maintaining exceptional standards. We also offer sibling discounts, vacation credits, and participate in county childcare assistance programs.

What are your teachers like?
Great teachers mean great childcare. So, we invest heavily in their professional growth, offering continuing education, coaching, and leadership opportunities. We attract and retain passionate educators who view teaching not as babysitting — but as building a legacy in childcare.
What curriculum do you use?
We use the Pinnacle Curriculum, a nationally recognized, developmentally appropriate program that exceeds state standards. It focuses on eight key areas of growth, including social-emotional development, critical thinking, language, creativity, and physical health — all designed to spark a lifelong love of learning.
