Preschool & Daycare Serving Milton, Harrington, Dover & Camden, DE
Educated Teachers Build Educated Students
The knowledge and experience of your child’s first teachers ensure future school and life success. Our teaching team is highly qualified, continues their education, and will elevate your child’s early learning.
Healthy, Balanced Meals At No Extra Cost
To help you through your busy work week and to keep your child healthy, happy, and growing, we provide home-cooked meals and snacks with high nutritious standards. Breakfast, lunch, and snacks are included at no extra cost to you.
Music, Art, Spanish, And Baby Sign Language Daily
At our daycare center, your child will enjoy learning in new and exciting ways every day. They hear different music, dance, and play with different art materials, and even learn to cook. They learn language skills from day one with Spanish practice and baby sign language.
Protocol Keeps Your Little One Safe And Secure
Strict safety protocols like requiring ID for entry in the building, in addition to restricted access, as well as monitoring with security cameras, are the high safety standards we uphold. Every parent deserves to know that their child is safe.
Cleanliness Is A Part Of Our Commitment
Children arrive in a clean environment, and our in-house professional cleaning team is at-the-ready to scrub and sanitize throughout the day. Exceptional cleanliness also brings order to your child’s day and helps them establish a good cleaning practice themselves.
The Funshine Express® Brings Daily Fun And Learning
At Shell’s Child Care, children learn by doing and engaging in exciting activities. We use the Funshine Express® class plans and individualize activities to cater to your child’s interests and developing capabilities.
Children Gain Essential Skills, To Prepare For Kindergarten
Loving teachers will work with your child to gain essential school-readiness skills, such as listening, sitting, reading, and more. By being attentive to your child’s specific needs, we can get them 100% school ready.
Children Learn Essential Life Skills Like Self-Care
Teachers go beyond the ABCs to be sure your child learns “please” and “thank you,” how to hand wash, push their chair in, and what it means to be a good friend. Your child will learn care for themselves, and each other with loving guidance and personal communication approaches, such as:
- Conscious Discipline
- Love and Logic
- Non-Violent Communication
Outdoor Play, Garden, And Basketball Keep children engaged
Children spend their daily time outside on age-appropriate play structures, but that’s not all. They will tend to a garden, which is good for the soul, and play hoops as a fun extra skill.
Children Have A Huge Preschool Graduation
Nothing makes us happier than to witness our child’s accomplishments. We bring all the preschools together in celebration at year’s end. After all, your child deserves to know how wonderful they are and how great they are doing!
A star Rating means A Shining Future
Delaware Stars promotes high-quality early learning, and all of our locations have 4-star ratings, which places us among the best providers for quality early learning experiences for your child.
Stay In Touch With A Convenient Parent App
Keep in touch throughout the day with our handy parent communication app. This feature allows you to easily communicate with Shell’s Child Care and get updates on your phone, including sweet pictures and videos.
