Welcome to Our School
Welcome to Gilden Woods Portage!
We’re so glad you’re here. Our team of early education experts is eager to meet you. We’re passionate about providing a positive, nurturing, high-quality child care experience your whole family will love. Come see for yourself!
Our school proudly offers Infant, Toddler, Preschool, GSRP and School Age programs. Our teachers help children build a great foundation with a meaningful approach to early education. We guide preschoolers to foster kindergarten readiness skills and a lifelong love of learning. And we welcome school-age students before and after school to provide extra resources and learning support.
Our safe, secure classrooms are all designed using a child-centered approach to engage their senses and keep them interested, curious, and excited about learning. Here, children grow their independence and social-emotional maturity in a community-based environment rooted in healthy habits and practical skills.
Don’t worry, you won’t miss a thing! We also give our families access to live streaming video and real-time updates with our exclusive all-in-one app, SproutAbout.
