Infant

Providing a gentle, nurturing care for infants with an emphasis on comfort and safety. Our daily rhythm supports each baby’s natural routine while encouraging early developmental milestones through songs, sensory play, and warm interactions.

Toddler

Preschool

Focusing on school readiness while keeping play at the heart of learning. We explore early literacy, math, and science through interactive projects, art, and circle-time discussions, while developing confidence, teamwork, and problem-solving.

After-School

Providing a cozy space for children to unwind after the school day. With opportunities for art, outdoor play, and homework support, we balance relaxation with enriching activities that foster creativity, friendships, and continued growth.

Meet your care provider

Hi, I’m Liz! I’m a family care provider and proud mom of three. I started Garnet Grove because I’ve always been passionate about caring for children and creating spaces where they feel safe, inspired, and free to grow. I’m certified in adult and pediatric CPR and First Aid, as well as VIRTUS certified, because your child’s safety and well-being always comes first.

I hold a bachelor’s degree in Business from Northeastern University, which has given me the tools to design a daycare that is both thoughtfully organized and an enriching for children. My formal background helps me manage the behind the scenes details such as curriculum planning, structure, and communication, so I can focus on creating a smooth, reliable , and nurturing experience for families.

Beyond academics, my most valuable lessons have come from real-life experience as a mom, caregiver, and volunteer in local education programs. Those hands-on experiences, combined with my love for early childhood development, have shaped everything I do at Garnet Grove.

I believe in letting kids be kids, in giving them space to create, imagine, ask questions, and discover the world around them. My goal is to provide a gentle, loving environment where children grow not only in their skills, but in confidence, kindness, and connection.

Thank you for considering my daycare. I’d be honored to meet you and your little one and to be part of their early learning journey!
