Families searching for day care in Wilmington, DE, often have a vision in mind: a place where their child feels at home, learns something new every day, and develops a genuine love for discovery. At Celebree School of Pike Creek, that vision becomes reality. Our approach combines nurturing care with enriching activities, helping children grow socially, emotionally, and academically in a setting that’s as joyful as it is structured.
A Place Where Learning Feels Like Play
Young children learn best when they’re having fun, which is why we design our programs to keep curiosity front and center. From building towers in the block corner to exploring science concepts through hands-on activities, our curriculum turns everyday moments into valuable lessons.
Our teachers use age-appropriate learning goals that help children strengthen early literacy, math, problem-solving, and communication skills, all while still getting plenty of time for imaginative play. This balance keeps kids engaged, challenged, and excited about coming to school each day.
Developing Social Skills for Life
Day care isn’t just about learning letters and numbers. It’s also a place where children learn how to be part of a community. In our classrooms, children practice sharing, cooperating, and resolving conflicts in a supportive setting.
They discover how to work as a team, listen to others, and express themselves with kindness and confidence.
These daily interactions build the foundation for strong social and emotional skills, which will serve them well long after they’ve left day care.
A Warm and Nurturing Environment
We believe that when children feel safe and valued, they thrive. Our classrooms are designed to be bright, welcoming, and organized so that children know exactly where to find what they need. Teachers build strong relationships with each child, getting to know their unique personalities, interests, and learning styles.
Parents often tell us that their children feel “at home” here, and that’s exactly what we aim for. We want every child to feel comfortable, confident, and excited to learn each day.
Encouraging Independence
At Celebree School of Pike Creek, we encourage children to try things on their own, make choices, and take on new responsibilities. Whether it’s putting away their toys, helping set up snack time, or zipping up their own jackets, these small moments of independence build self-esteem and confidence.
By the time they leave our program, children are not only academically prepared but also ready to tackle new challenges with a “can-do” attitude.
A Strong Connection with Families
We see our work as a partnership with parents. That’s why we keep families informed through regular updates, progress reports, and daily communication. Parents can feel confident knowing exactly how their child is doing and what they’re learning.
We also encourage family participation in events, classroom activities, and special celebrations—it’s a wonderful way to stay connected and involved in your child’s growth.
Preparing for a Bright Future
The early years are the foundation for a lifetime of learning. Our day care program doesn’t just prepare children for kindergarten. It equips them with the skills, habits, and confidence to succeed in school and beyond.
At Celebree School of Pike Creek, we’re proud to provide an environment where children feel supported, challenged, and loved. It’s no wonder so many parents in Wilmington choose us as their trusted partner in early education.
