Description: At Suburban Hills, we believe in the concept that happy, well-adjusted children, given the respect and attention they deserve, possess self-confidence, initiative, perseverance, and the ability to work and solve problems in conjunction with their peers.
Suburban Hills School is not merely childcare. We blend a strong, structured, academic program with interesting activities and free play to hone in on each child’s potential to become well-rounded individuals on every level. We stress the importance of building a positive self-image by making each child feel loved, special, and unique. We constantly evaluate each child’s skill level to ensure they are appropriately challenged to their abilities and potential.
Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.
