I started bringing my four kids here for a few months now it’s been going great they work with children that may have behavioral issues instead of Casting them away like they do at Sunrise Daycare. This day care is open to having therapist an assistive staff come in and help your children anytime necessary and they’re always upbeat and positive and willing to help. Would recommend this daycare to anyone

I have owned Peoria Avenue Preschool for 11 years....LOVE LOVE LOVE my career. Our philosophy is every child is unique and to be treated with love and respect. We are a curriculum based school with exceptional teaching staff who take their role as mentor, teacher, and caregiver seriously. We are honored to serve the children and parents in our community.

I am an extremely cautious grandmother and I feel absolutely blessed to have my granddaughters be able to attend Peoria Avenue Preschool. Both are at ease and happy to go to school each day. My 3 year old grandaughter LOVES her teacher's Sky and Jennelle and believe me ...if she didn't she'd tell me, LOL. My other grandaughter is an infant and adores Kelly*** and Linda her caregivers. Annette, the owner is very passionate about her daycare business's success and Heidi is as well, both are always pleasantly attentive and helpful, which is very important to me to know they care about more than just the bottom dollar and are proactively involved with the daily operations required to care for children. As my grandaughter would say I'd give them "two thumbs up".

The first year of life is critical and each infant is a unique individual with distinctive needs. The idea of babies talking and reading might sound like something from a Pixar film, but it's never too early to start building language and literacy skills.


Research on brain development indicates that the brains of infants and toddlers are twice as active as those of adults. By the time your child reaches the age of three, they will have become competent in at least one language, formed a sense of self, learned about basic concepts such as cause-and-effect and quantity, and developed numerous large- and small-muscle skills.


Two year old's are a busy group physically and verbally! Teachers encourage curiosity, promote play, and foster self awareness all day long. Our Ready 2 Learn program nurtures the critical relationship building that occurs at this age, supporting intellectual and social development.


With your child’s third birthday, the “terrible twos” are officially over! During the next year, your child will continue to mature in many areas. Sometimes so quickly, you'll want them to slow down. Especially since this is the year they will start walking without tripping over their own feet.

Many pre-kindergarten children attend Sunrise Preschools eager to learn. Not only is your child ready and able to answer simple questions easily and logically, but he or she has started to use that vast vocabulary to form complex phrases and sentences, allowing them to express their ideas and feelings in a more robust manner.

Now that Sunrise Preschools has prepared your child for their bright future, they can continue on that path by joining us for our safe, stimulating and challenging Before, After, and School Days Off program.

Our two year old goes to the toddler program at Guidepost Montessori and we absolutely love the learning and friendships she is making at this school. The way they teach her about life and how to be a whole person is very evident every day after she goes home. She randomly sings new songs and speaks in complete sentences and we just get surprised by the awesome progress she makes every time. The staff is outstanding: friendly, accommodating, and very patient - they love what they do. The facility is clean, which is one of the biggest factors why we chose them. We will definitely be staying with Guidepost until she goes to Kindergarten! Thank you Guidepost!

Children under the age of six absorb language effortlessly, which is why we are pleased to offer bilingual environments. In our Spanish Immersion program, children learn both Spanish and English literacy skills, however, the prevailing language spoken throughout the day is Spanish. The overall emphasis on Spanish rapidly increases fluency, as children feel naturally compelled to communicate with their Spanish-speaking guides. Learn more about our Spanish Immersion program here.
