Infants
Our infant care program is designed to provide a safe and nurturing environment where your baby can explore and grow. With a focus on sensory development and early social skills, our caregivers provide the love and attention your baby needs during these crucial early months.
Preschool Program
For children ages two to five, our preschool program blends play with structured learning to foster creativity, curiosity, and a love of learning. Through activities like music, arts and crafts, drama, science, and early math concepts, we provide a well-rounded education that prepares children for kindergarten and beyond.
Before and After School
(K-3)
Our “Big Rainbow” program offers a fun and supportive environment for school-aged children. We provide transportation to several local elementary schools, nutritious meals and snacks, and a variety of activities to keep your child engaged and happy before and after the school day.
A Safe and Stimulating Environment
The safety and well-being of your child are our top priorities. The Rainbow School is located in the family-friendly neighborhood of Klahanie, and our facility is designed to provide a cheerful, clean, and secure environment for learning and play. Our large, developmentally appropriate playground is filled with equipment that encourages active play and physical development, and we have a full-size gymnasium for rainy day activities. Children are grouped in stable class groups, which helps them feel secure and connected, and we have home rooms where they can relax and settle in with minimal transitions.

We understand that every family has different needs, which is why we offer flexible scheduling options for our programs. Whether you need care two, three, four or five days a week, we work with you to find a schedule that fits your family’s lifestyle.
