Invest in Your Child's Future
Our rates reflect the exceptional care your child receives: daily outings, chef-prepared organic meals, small group attention, and 25+ years of expertise.
Monthly rates are the weekly rate averaged across the year, so your payment stays the same every month. Families enrolled five days a week pay the full-time daily rate; families enrolled fewer days pay the part-time daily rate.
Beyond your weekly or monthly tuition, these are the standard charges — no daily add-ons for meals, outings, or activities. Optional extended-hours care is billed separately (see below).
| Registration Fee | $200 one-time, at enrollment |
| Supply Fee | $200 per year |
| Late Pick-Up | $2 per minute after 5:30pm |
| Returned Check | $35 |
We accept PayPal, Venmo, CashApp, Apple Pay, Stripe, check, and cash. Weekly fees are payable in advance on the first day of care.
For families whose mornings start before ours do. When your little one needs care as early as 5:30 a.m. — up to three hours before our regular 8:30 a.m. opening — we offer dedicated premium early-morning care for infants.
Example
5:30 a.m. – 8:30 a.m. at $35/hour = $105/day
Early-morning availability is limited — schedule a tour to discuss your family's schedule and reserve your spot.
Meals, outings, and activities are built into your tuition — nothing extra billed day to day.
Homemade breakfast, lunch, and snacks prepared fresh daily with organic ingredients.
Transportation to zoo, museums, libraries, parks. Gas and admission included.
Art materials, diapers (if preferred), sunscreen, and craft supplies — all provided, covered by the annual supply fee.
Baby yoga, music, art, gardening, cooking projects built into every day.
Updates on activities, meals, naps, and milestones. Photos shared regularly.
Individual attention in an intimate home environment.
Sarah spent years as a nanny and in a nanny share before opening Bridges. Here is what a licensed daycare gives your child that one-to-one care at home does not.
Socialization. Children learn alongside other children every day — sharing, negotiating, and making friends.
Cost. A full early-education program for less than the cost of one-to-one private care.
Licensed and trained. First aid, preventive health, and safety training kept current as a condition of licensing.
A space built for children. The whole home is childproofed, inspected, and set up for safe play.
Ongoing education. Continuing workshops and training every year, not a one-time qualification.
Qualifications and degrees. Culinary school, nutrition certification, LVN program, and child development coursework.
Professionalism. A written contract, clear policies, and a business you can hold to a standard.
Age-appropriate learning. A planned day of activities matched to where each child actually is.
Montessori-inspired, child-led. A prepared environment where children choose, explore, and build independence.
A simple 4-step process to join the Bridges family.

We care for infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and school-age children.
Yes. Alongside full-time weekly and monthly enrollment, we offer daily rates for families who need fewer than five days a week. Occasional days are welcome subject to availability and are billed at the part-time daily rate.
We accommodate all allergies and dietary needs. Please let us know in advance so we can plan meals and snacks safely.
Standard hours are Monday through Friday, 8:30am–5:30pm. To keep our daily outings on schedule, drop-offs close at 9:30am. Late-evening care is often available for an additional fee, and we offer dedicated early-morning infant care for families who need care as early as 5:30am (see Extended-Hours Infant Care above) — please ask if your family needs a little extra flexibility.
Everything day to day: all homemade meals and snacks, outings (including admission and gas), art and craft supplies, enrichment activities, and daily communication. The additional charges are the one-time $200 registration fee, the $200 annual supply fee, the late pick-up and returned check fees listed above, and optional extended-hours care if you need it.
