Programs for Every Age & Stage
From your baby's first weeks to the last days of elementary school, Lorraines has a program built around your kiddo's stage of life. And with an acre of outdoor space and a huge indoor gym, there's room for all of them to play, rain or shine.
Infant Care
Every coo, every smile, every first word, our infant room is a calm, nurturing space designed around your baby's natural rhythms. Low caregiver ratios mean your little one is never just a number. We partner closely with parents, keeping daily logs and maintaining consistent routines so your infant feels safe and loved from day one.
- Low infant-to-caregiver ratios
- Daily reports, feeding, sleep, milestones
- Sensory-rich, age-appropriate play
- Consistent caregivers for secure attachment
Toddler Program
Toddlers are natural explorers, curious, busy, and learning at a pace that amazes even the most experienced caregivers. Our toddler rooms are designed for that energy: safe spaces to pull up, cruise, take first steps, and discover their world through touch, taste, and play.
- Sensory play stations and discovery areas
- Music, movement, and outdoor exploration
- Bilingual caregivers, many of our teachers speak fluent Spanish
- Positive guidance and consistent routines
Twos Program
Two-year-olds are discovering independence, sometimes loudly! Our teachers are skilled at channeling that determination into something wonderful. Art, dramatic play, and outdoor time give toddlers healthy outlets while building language, coordination, and early social skills.
- Art, sensory bins, and imaginative play
- Language-rich storytelling and songs
- Potty training support and encouragement
- Social skill building, sharing, turn-taking
Preschool-Age Care
Preschool-age kiddos are hungry to learn, they ask 'why?' constantly and can dive into more complex play. Our Montessori-inspired, play-based classrooms are built for exactly that stage: self-directed learning, hands-on activities, and rich social experiences that build kindergarten readiness naturally.
- Montessori-inspired, play-based curriculum
- Pre-reading, pre-math, science discovery
- Group projects and cooperative play
- Field trips and community experiences
Pre-K
Pre-K at Lorraines is specifically designed to set children up for a confident, joyful start in kindergarten. We go beyond ABC's and 123's, we focus on executive function, self-regulation, and the social-emotional skills that research shows matter most for long-term school success.
- Structured kindergarten-readiness curriculum
- Literacy and numeracy foundations
- Critical thinking and problem-solving
- Portfolio-based progress tracking
School-Age Care
Before-school, after-school, and full summer care for elementary-age kids. Our bus picks up from Burley and Rupert area schools, so working parents don't have to worry about logistics. Kids get free-choice activities, outdoor play, and time in our one-of-a-kind indoor gym.
- Bus pickup from local elementary schools
- Quiet reading time
- Indoor gym access (year-round!)
- Summer program with field trips
