Babes on the Square - Trolley Square Location

Babes on the Square provides care for children aged 18 months thru Pre-kindergarten. Each of our four age groups maintains low teacher-child ratios and small group sizes to foster strong adult/child relationships. Classrooms are lead by Delaware Department of Education/Delaware First qualified teachers.

Each morning and afternoon we hold open activities for all of the children in the center. This allows socialization and interaction amongst children of different ages. Mixed age interaction replicates family structure and creates camaraderie, which is comforting to small children. In addition, exposure to younger or less developed students encourages nurturing and use of leadership skills. Interaction with more developed students allows your child to advance their own skills and abilities by patterning and emulation.

Breakfast, lunch and afternoon snack are provided hot and fresh daily. Babes on the Square proudly offers catered meals following federal guidelines to ensure each child receives well balanced meals. Children are encouraged to try new foods each day with a new fruit/vegetable introduced each week. Most meals are served family style to promote independence and self help skills. Physical activity is encouraged throughout the day to get little hearts beating! We have a great enclosed playground, which is hard to find in the city! Screen time is limited to almost never!
