Who We Are

About Us

Imagination Station Child Care and Preschool promises to provide a safe and nurturing environment for all children through our hands-on approach. We're excited to offer a program that's high-quality, educationally based, and stimulating for our students. Parents will find that we’ve created a friendly and professional environment for the whole family to enjoy.

Our program offers innovative curriculum tailored to the NYS standards. We start preparing your child for kindergarten from the first day they join us! Additionally, parents just love our clean classrooms, high-quality furniture, toys, and manipulatives, along with the touch screen monitors at sign-in.

Our philosophy is that children learn through experience and play. Therefore, it's important to us that our teachers are on the floor interacting with the children, making each experience a valuable one. Asking the right questions, posing problems, and encouraging them to come up with solutions, are just a few strategies our teachers use.

We encourage you to browse our website and learn about our program. Most importantly, stop in to take a tour and find out more about the exceptional program we offer! We're confident your children will love our program as much as ours do!

IS_Infant

Infants

Parents love our all-inclusive infant program! We provide lots of snuggles and smiles throughout the day, as well as an active classroom. The best part is that we've created an environment that grows with your child. From bouncers and swings to push toys and tables, children are always busy and well cared for in our classrooms. ​Additionally, we have planned a curriculum that allows our infants to begin the exploration and learning process at a very early age. Reading, music and movement, and painting with our hands and feet start as early as 6 weeks old. Our program grows as they do, we slowly add in things like sensory, manipulatives, and art projects as they get older.
Toddler 4-1

Toddlers

Toddler children just love our program because we're just as busy as they are! We have activities planned for the entire day as well as music and movement, art projects, sensory, and outdoor time (weather permitting). Our program is thoughtfully designed to evolve alongside our students, ensuring a seamless transition as they grow from infants to toddlers. In the toddler room, the environment shifts to a center-based classroom layout, fostering side-by-side play, socialization, pretend play, and much more. The furniture is thoughtfully adapted for this age group; larger tables and slightly higher chairs encourage independence.
Preschool IS

Preschool

Our preschool program is filled with choices to captivate every child's interests, from toys and puzzles to technology time and creative arts. Daily activities include music, movement, themed projects, sensory play, and outdoor fun, weather permitting. As children grow, our program smoothly transitions them from the toddler phase with features like personalized cubbies for name recognition. The classroom design encourages cooperative play and creative exploration, with areas dedicated to sensory activities and manipulatives like lacing and stacking, all aimed at fostering development and fine motor skills.

Our school-age program is designed to support busy families by managing after-school tasks like snacks and homework, helping to streamline your evening routine.

Mornings feature breakfast and preparatory activities, while afternoons include snack time, homework assistance, creative projects, and outdoor play, all aimed at reducing stress for parents and enriching the day for kids.
