Supporting Our Community
As always, we’re proud to support our community. It starts with a healthy, safe environment when your child is away from home. Learn how we prioritize the well-being of your children and our staff.
Plus, read how we keep learning on track for elementary school students with The Prep Lab, offering distance learning support and extra math and literacy experiences in summer camp.
Welcome to Our School
Welcome to Childtime in Southfield, MI! My name is Melissa and I am the school director. I have a Master of Science degree in early childhood studies and more than 10 years of experience in early childhood.
Whether it's providing care for infants or participating in activities in our preschool programs, I take pride in being a part of the life and development of every child we care for. Our staff has 150 years of combined experience in the field. Staff members are CPR/First Aid certified and participate in training each year.
We value families and offer a variety of opportunities for them to be involved. We also offer parent-teacher conferences twice a year to discuss developmental progress in a more personal setting.
Safety and security are a priority and our front door is always locked and secured with a state of the art security system. Families are assigned a code to enter the building and visitors are greeted at the front door and identification cards are always checked.
At our school, you'll also love staying connected with your child all day long through our mobile app. Get real-time updates via text and email, so you don't miss a single moment.
We invite you to schedule a tour of our Childtime educational daycare in Southfield, MI today!
