Infant and Toddler Care
Individualized childcare serves infants and toddlers in Chicago.
Intimate childcare for infants and toddlers is the focus at Bright Beginnings Early Learning Center, a Chicago daycare founded in 2017. The center uses Montessori-inspired practices, hands-on exploration, play-based learning, and multi-language experiences through songs, stories, conversations, and routines. Individualized care supports each child's pace, independence, self-expression, and relationships with caregivers. Bright Beginnings was created by Martese Amerson and Dr. Bob Hirsch, with Elin Valentin serving as director and co-owner. Its program centers on strong bonds with children and families, cultural respect, and a calm environment designed to feel like a second home. Families are asked to attend a tour before joining the waitlist.
