Early Learning Programs That Grow With Your Child
Nurturing Your Child’s Potential Through Play, Discovery, and Expert Care
At Learning Zone, every classroom is built around what children need most at each age: safety, consistency, and the freedom to learn through meaningful experiences. From your baby’s first days in care to the confident growth of Pre-K, we create an environment that feels nurturing, structured, and personal.
Our Education Engineers guide children through play-based learning that supports social-emotional development, early literacy, problem-solving, and STEAM-based exploration. Families choose Learning Zone because our programs feel intentional, our teachers build real relationships, and children are supported every step of the way.
Full Steam Ahead
At Learning Zone, STEAM learning is part of everyday play. Children explore big ideas through hands-on activities that are age-appropriate – think building, experimenting, creating, and problem-solving with their friends. This approach strengthens curiosity, early math and literacy skills, and confidence – all while keeping learning fun and exciting.
C3 Curriculum
Our exclusive C3 Curriculum is designed to meet children exactly where they are and help them grow from there. With consistent routines, engaging classroom themes, and flexible lessons that support different learning styles, children build strong foundations at their own pace. It is a structured approach that still feels warm, creative, and child-led.
From First Steps to Kindergarten Ready: A Journey of Discovery
Your child’s journey begins in a space designed to feel like a nurturing extension of home. In our Infant and Toddler programs, we focus on caring relationships and gentle routines that empower little ones to confidently explore the world around them.
As children grow, our curriculum grows with them. Our Education Engineers guide this transition with hands-on learning, meaningful conversations, and age-appropriate challenges. We turn that messy, natural curiosity into a strong foundation, one “Aha!” moment at a time.
As they graduate into our Pre-K program, the focus shifts toward confident school readiness through adventurous STEAM exploration. By the time they leave us, your child won’t just be ready for kindergarten, they’ll be ready to thrive, filled with the confidence and curiosity that makes learning a lifelong joy.
Frequently Asked Questions
Questions About Our Programs? Here’s What Families Ask Before Getting Started
What is the difference between daycare and the programs at Learning Zone?
Traditional daycare often focuses primarily on supervision and basic needs. At Learning Zone, our programs are intentionally engineered to facilitate early childhood development. Using our proprietary C3 Curriculum and STEAM-based play, we ensure that every hour spent in our care is an opportunity for your child to build cognitive, social, and emotional skills.
How does STEAM learning look for an infant vs. a Pre-K student?
STEAM is scaled to be age-appropriate. For an infant, it might be sensory-based, like feeling different textures or watching cause and effect with a toy. By Pre-K, it evolves into education engineering, where children might build a bridge out of blocks to test stability or conduct simple science experiments to learn about the natural world.
Will my child be behind if they start at Learning Zone in Preschool instead of as an infant?
Not at all. Our C3 Curriculum is designed to be flexible, meeting children exactly where they are. Our Education Engineers assess each child’s current developmental stage and integrate them into the classroom routines and learning themes, ensuring they build the necessary foundations at their own pace.
How do your programs prepare children for the specific requirements of Murfreesboro, TN, Kindergartens?
Our Pre-K program is specifically aligned with school readiness standards. We focus on “The Big Three”: early literacy (phonics and vocabulary), math foundations (number sense and patterns), and executive function (following multi-step directions and social independence).
How do your programs support children with different learning styles?
Our Education Engineers recognize that every child processes information differently. Some are visual, some are kinesthetic (hands-on), and some are auditory. Because our C3 Curriculum is theme-based and flexible, we can present a single concept in multiple ways. Whether your child learns best by doing, seeing, or talking through a problem, our programs are engineered to meet them exactly where they are.
