Birthdays & Christmas
At Daylight Daycare, we believe every child deserves to feel special and celebrated.
Each child’s birthday is honored with a gift, cake, and a joyful mini celebration shared with their fellow daycare classmates. We also make the Christmas season extra special by giving gifts and spreading holiday cheer right here at the daycare.
Nutritious Meals & Snacks
Healthy bodies fuel happy minds! We provide hot breakfast, snacks, lunch, and dinner every day; all prepared with care to meet children’s nutritional needs which are approved by the nutritional food program of Connecticut.
Our goal is to ensure every child feels cared for, full, and ready to learn from morning until pickup.
