Ruby Babies
Named in honor of the owner’s grandmother, Ruby Babies reflects her legacy of compassion, generosity, and unwavering care for others. She had a heart for people and was known for opening her home to those in need, making sure they felt welcomed, supported, and cared for. That same spirit of love, comfort, and community serves as the foundation of our nursery program.
Created for children ages 6 weeks to 18 months, Ruby Babies provides a clean, safe, nurturing, and educational environment where infants can grow, discover, and thrive during their earliest stages of development. Our goal is to become an extension of your family while caring for your most precious gifts with the same attentiveness and warmth that inspired this classroom.
Through thoughtfully designed experiences, sensory exploration, and age-appropriate activities, children are encouraged to engage with their surroundings and discover learning in meaningful and unique ways. With a maximum enrollment of 21 children, our dedicated staff is committed to supporting each child’s individual growth, development, confidence, and early success while creating a place where every child feels valued, loved, and at home.
Dolls and Dudes
Named in honor of the owner’s great aunt, Dolls and Dudes celebrates the loving, hands-on spirit she brought to every child she cared for. Known as the ultimate babysitter, she had a special gift for making children feel seen, supported, and capable. She taught generations valuable homemaking skills, encouraged independence, and even introduced children to strategic thinking and problem-solving through games of cards—showing that learning can happen in meaningful and memorable ways.
Designed for children ages 18 months to 2½ years, this classroom provides a nurturing environment that supports early growth and development with a maximum capacity of 14 children. Through structure, exploration, and guided learning, children begin building the foundational skills that prepare them for future success.
Our program introduces children to daily routines and scheduling, early potty seat familiarity, body awareness, and the essential building blocks of education. Through age-appropriate activities and encouragement, we help children develop independence, confidence, early decision-making skills, and readiness for the next stage of learning—while creating joyful experiences that inspire curiosity and growth.

PB & J
While PB & J may commonly bring to mind a favorite childhood sandwich, this class is actually named in honor of the owner’s grandparents—two people known for their enormous hearts, unwavering love, and fierce dedication to family. They believed in protecting, supporting, and showing up for the people they loved while remaining kind, nurturing, and encouraging. Their legacy inspires the culture of this classroom every day.
Designed for children ages 2½ to 4 years old, this class provides a nurturing and engaging environment with a maximum capacity of 14 students. Our program focuses on potty training, Pre-K readiness, and helping children build the confidence needed for continued growth and success.
Through age-appropriate learning experiences, children develop independence, strengthen early writing and foundational academic skills, and gain opportunities to make choices, solve problems, and express themselves. Just as the class namesakes modeled strength through love and support, we encourage each child to build self-confidence, discover their abilities, and develop the skills needed for the next stage of learning.

Prince and Princess
Named in honor of the owner’s beloved fur baby, this class reflects the same intelligence, warmth, and loving spirit that inspired its name. Our primary focus is preparing children for a successful transition into Kindergarten and beyond by supporting growth in every area of development—academically, socially, emotionally, and creatively.
Through engaging, hands-on learning experiences, students strengthen foundational Pre-K and Kindergarten readiness skills including early literacy, letter and sound recognition, beginning reading and writing, number sense, problem-solving, science exploration, and critical thinking. Children also develop important social-emotional skills such as communication, independence, self-regulation, teamwork, and confidence.
By encouraging creativity, innovation, and a love for learning, we guide each child to discover their strengths, reach developmental milestones, and build the skills needed to thrive in Kindergarten, 1st grade, and beyond.

Misses & Misters
Named in honor of the owner’s great grandmother, Misses and Misters reflects the values she passed down through generations—especially the importance of family, connection, and creating a strong foundation for future success. Inspired by her belief that children thrive when surrounded by love, guidance, and support, this program serves as an extension of family while helping children continue to grow and discover their potential.
Our School Age program provides a safe, engaging, and enriching environment where learning extends beyond the school day. Through a STEAM-based approach—integrating Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics—students participate in hands-on experiences that encourage critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, and innovation.
From engineering challenges and scientific discovery to artistic expression and real-world problem solving, children strengthen academic skills while developing independence, confidence, leadership, and social-emotional growth. At Bells and Whistles Childcare, our goal is to inspire lifelong learners while nurturing the values of family, curiosity, and excellence in every child.
