More Than Day Care —
a Second Home
Warm and inviting day care interior with children's learning materials

At Tender Heart Day Care, we believe the best early learning happens in an environment that feels like home. Located on West Greene Drive in Mosheim, our family-run center offers a peaceful, nurturing setting where children thrive.

We know that choosing child care is one of the most important decisions a family can make. That's why we've built something special — a place where caregivers truly know each child, where routines are gentle and consistent, and where every day brings new discoveries.

Our small-group approach means your child isn't just a number. They're a friend, a learner, and a valued member of our day care family.

Everything Your Child Needs
to Grow and Explore

From structured learning activities to free play and rest, we provide a well-rounded experience that supports every area of early development.

Early Learning Activities

Age-appropriate lessons in literacy, numeracy, and creative expression that build the foundation for lifelong learning through play-based methods.

Nutritious Meals & Snacks

Healthy, home-prepared meals and snacks provided daily, accommodating dietary needs and helping children develop good eating habits.

Structured Play & Social Skills

Guided group activities that encourage sharing, cooperation, and emotional growth in a safe and supportive environment.

Gentle Rest Time

A calm, quiet space for naps and rest, respecting each child's individual schedule and need for rejuvenation throughout the day.

Outdoor Exploration

Supervised outdoor play in our secure yard, where children enjoy fresh air, physical activity, and the simple joy of being kids.

Open Communication with Families

We keep parents informed every day — about meals, naps, activities, and milestones — because partnership matters to us.

Tailored Care for Every Age

Each program is thoughtfully designed to match the developmental needs of your child, with curriculum that grows alongside them.

Toddlers · 1 – 3 years

Curious explorers

Active, hands-on learning through sensory play, music, and early language. We support walking, talking, and the wonderful independence of toddlerhood.

Ready to Learn

Pre-kindergarten readiness through structured activities in reading, math, science, and art — building confidence and school readiness in a fun setting.

What Makes Us Different
01

Small Ratios, Real Relationships

We keep our groups small so every child receives individual attention. Caregivers learn your child's personality, preferences, and pace — and they remember it year after year.

02

A Home, Not an Institution

Our cozy, residential setting feels nothing like a large commercial center. It's quiet, clean, and warm — a place where children feel secure and families feel welcome.

03

Rooted in the Mosheim Community

We're neighbors, not a chain. Our doors are open to local families, and we take pride in being a trusted part of this community's fabric.

04

Transparent & Trusting

Visit anytime, call anytime. We believe parents deserve to know exactly what their child is experiencing, and we welcome that conversation with open arms.

What Parents Say About Us

The trust of Mosheim families is our greatest accomplishment. Here's what some of them have shared.

Tender Heart has been a blessing for our family. My daughter went from shy and hesitant to confident and excited for "school" every morning. The caregivers truly treat the children like their own.

We drove past larger centers for years, but something about Tender Heart felt different. It's clean, it's calm, and the love these caregivers show is real. I always feel at ease dropping off my son here.

The communication is outstanding. I know exactly what my daughter ate, how she slept, and what she learned each day. It's the kind of attention you don't find anywhere else in Mosheim.
