Summit Mission

Summit Start helps families with children. We help them by providing a guilt-free alternative learning experience by creating an environment in which children can thrive on their own terms. 

We want to change the landscape of childcare to be one of choice, not a necessity. We will know we are successful when Summit Start becomes a worldwide trusted brand.

Summit Philosophy

Summit Start has a fresh, relevant, and innovative approach to childcare.  We have developed an environment that encourages all children to thrive on their terms. By fostering relationships with various community resources, we have developed an extensive and integrated program that enables us to meet each child’s emotional, social, physical, and developmental stages.   

• Multi-generational programming.
• Encourage child-led initiatives.
• Offer healthy, nutritious snacks, and meals.
• Model good choices with nutrition and recreation.
• Provide opportunities to explore their surroundings and the world at large.
• Teach emotional, social, and literacy skills.
• Guide children through problem-solving and self-care choices.
• Provide creative learning through technology and performing arts.
• Promote leadership and encourage peer mentoring through our full-day Summit Launch program for kindergarten-aged children.

Our children will, through independent exploration, structured activities, and hands-on learning, develop a variety of skills and knowledge in areas like early literacy, mathematics, science, and social skills.  We offer an enriching environment that will stimulate growth and enrichment in these six learning domains:

• Cognitive Development • Executive Function • Creative Expression • Language & Literacy • Physical & Wellness • Social & Emotional
