With horses grazing nearby, Tuckaway-Harbor combines a rural, country living atmosphere with unique,award winning architecture and the most up-to-date curriculum in child care.

Tuckaway-Harbor is divided into two separate buildings: one for younger children and one for school-aged children. All of the children are separated by age group so teachers can focus on each child's individual needs at each stage of development.The school-aged building also features fun space-ship themed architecture!

Tuckaway Harbor offers 5 rolling acres of playground. Its large 1/3 acre multi-purpose hard-top play area is built for bike riding, basketball, and to provide some extra footing for Tuckaway's new walkers. The large playground also features a covered pavilion and large, open fields for soccer, basketball, or whatever other games your child can invent. Tuckaway's playgrounds also have large, in-ground swimming pools carefully supervised by teachers and certified life-guards, and sectioned off by swimming ability and age to provide the utmost safety to every child.

Tuckaway-Harbor always provides family-style dining with warm, home-cooked meals prepared in its very own kitchen. All of Tuckaway's menus are prepared according to USDA guidelines.

Here's what parents say about Tuckaway-Harbor!

Luke H. - We have been part of the Tuckaway-Harbor family for over a year now and could not be happier.  The magnificent facilities are always clean and the safety of our children is never in question.  What really drew us to Tuckaway is the facility.  The are the gem that make us feel at home!

Vith P. - My son has been going here for about a year now. He found this place as his home. He met good friends to play and to learn with together. I never considered Tuckaway just as simple child care. I have so much respect with their academic programs and high quality teachers. If you are looking for a trustworthy and excellent preschool for your precious little one, I would highly recommend Tuckaway Harbor. I would have not done it another way for my Charlie.

Kristin K. - My son just starting going here almsot a month ago. And I would recommend this day care to everyone I know. The people there are amazing. I will continue to go there as long as they allow us to. Moms if your looking for a good place to take your kids this is it! 

Rachel S. - Tuckaway has been a wonderful experience for my little boy.  He has been there since an infant and will be graduating preschool from there in June.  I know that when I drop him off, that he will be well treated and good care will be given to him.  The staff are polite and friendly.  They have an amazing playground and many activities for the children.  They have a pool and teach the children how to swim.  I really like their philosophy about the importance of play.    .
