Who We Are

It is the philosophy of Prettyboy Recreation Home B.A.S.E & Tiny Tots, that children be encouraged to learn and grow by providing developmentally appropriate experiences where each child can succeed in a safe and loving environment. We believe that each child is an individual that is capable, curious, full of potential, and worthy of respect. Our programs provide an inclusive setting that recognizes each student's abilities, interests, needs, and learning style. We promote meaningful play as an avenue to learning. It cultivates creativity, curiosity, discovery, and problem solving which allows for personal growth and the development of positive self image. We champion risk takers and invite the sharing of ideas. Our program is child centered. We take a holistic approach by educating the whole child. We believe that developing social skills, emotional intelligence, and mindfulness are just as important as the ABCs and 123s.

Before and After School Program

Home B.A.S.E., our before-and-after school care program provides a safe, relaxed, inclusive environment where kids can prepare for the school day or relax and play after the day is done. Our staff is educated in child development and trained to promote learning in a nurturing environment. We work to encourage healthy habits such as participating in outdoor physical activity, eating good snacks, and being able to socialize with persons of all ages and abilities. We offer a snack to our PM Home B.A.S.E. students, at no additional charge.
Operating hours are as follows:
6:30AM-8:30AM and 3:30PM- 6:00 PM

"Rest easy, your kids are in good hands. Last year, my son and daughter
joined Tots with no prior pre-k experience. It took a little time for them to adjust, but their growth has been amazing to witness. They love their
teachers and enjoy going to school.”
