Excellent Care In A Safe Environment
The infant room is a safe, warm, and caring environment where your baby can explore, learn, and flourish. Your child is cocooned in safety and security as they awaken to the world around them.
Storytime, Art, Music, & More Boost Early Learning
Age-appropriate activities stimulate your baby’s curiosity as well as their senses. Guiding your child’s continuous learning and exploration takes place in the following ways:
- Tummy time builds your baby’s strength
- Circle Time encourages group play and gentle exploration with other babies
- Exposure to music has a myriad of benefits for your baby’s brain development
- Storytime assists in language development, fosters listening skills, and develops an early love for books
Strong Parent Partnerships Build Lasting Relationships
Taking care of children and families creates a family. Get the support you, your family, and your child need through ups and downs from expert caregivers who are also family to each other.

F.A.Q (Frequently Asked Questions)
We provide daily reports via the Procare app. Paper reports are offered to families if needed.
Each day begins with circle time, which includes things lke story time or show and tell. Activity centers, teacher-led lessons, fun activities, nutritious meals and snacks, rest time, and outdoor play take care of the rest of the day.
Children play outside twice a day, weather permitting. Age-appropriate playgrounds as well as expansive natural playscapes provide ample exploration. We reduce the amount of time spent outside in the event of precipitation or extreme temperatures.
Ratios vary by age. Infants are 1:4
It is natural for children to test limits and rules. Our staff uses positive management strategies including redirection, anticipation/prevention of problems, positive reinforcement, logical consequences, and encouragement rather than competition, comparison, or criticism. Most importantly, we recognize that part of this process is providing children with the tools and support they need to express their feelings and needs in acceptable ways. We abstain from corporal punishment or other humiliating or frightening disciplinary techniques.
When possible, we will work as a team with outside professionals to implement an individualized plan that supports the child’s inclusion and success. It may be determined that we do not have adequate expertise or resources for the child’s educational, medical, or other needs, especially in situations where safety is at risk.
Meals
AsheBridge Children’s Academy provides a nutritious morning snack, lunch, and an afternoon snack that meet the USDA meal requirements for children.
No, all meals and snacks are provided. All children eat the same thing together. We do not make exceptions for food preferences. Parents are required to provide infant formula/milk and baby food.
No, children may not bring home food into the center. Please finish all breakfast and snacks at home or in your car prior to entering the building.
Yes, infant parents are required to send prepared bottles and baby food while in the infant room. Starting in the toddler room, children all enjoy the prepared meals and snacks with their friends.
We can accommodate minor allergies (with medical documentation) or meat-free diet, provided the family provides substitute items of equal nutritional value. Unfortunately, we aren’t able to work with generalized dietary restrictions, such as gluten intolerance.
Diapers & Potty Training
Yes, diapers (up to size 6) and wipes are provided at no extra charge for infants, toddlers, and 2’s.
Yes, you may bring your own disposable diapers and wipes.
No, we only use disposable diapers.
Children begin sitting on the potty when they are 2 years old and show interest in doing so. It is our goal to finish potty training before the 3rd birthday. While we recognize that every child has their own timetable for this, we expect toilet use by children in older classrooms.
What Parents Are Saying...
"We love how nurturing and caring everyone is"
We had such a bad experience with another children’s facility and was told that our son just wasn’t suited for group care. Then we found Ashebridge in Cary and the staff has been so wonderful and welcoming! The infant room teachers were so great and gave our son the best care, love, and support! He is thriving and so much happier, since making the switch! We love how nurturing and caring everyone is to his needs and development!

"I highly recommend them to anyone"
We absolutely LOVE it here! I love the staff, they really care about our whole family. My son loves to see his friends and teachers. Job changings made us go to both schools and the director has been flexible with my schedule needs. I highly recommend them to anyone.

"We are so lucky to be apart of the AsheBridge Family!"
The family atmosphere at AsheBridge Cary is so amazing. All of the teachers have become part of our family. They truly care about our daughter and want her to succeed and grow!
Every day my daughter comes home with something fun that she did! The different activities the kids partake in are age appropriate and create such a positive learning environment! Every weekend my daughter throws a fit because she wants to go to school!
Jennifer and the owners are so understanding and wonderful! If there is ever anything I need help with they are always on top of it! And the fact that BOTH owners are at the center EVERY SINGLE DAY speaks wonders!
We are so lucky to be apart of the AsheBridge Family! And we will NEVER be going to another school!
