The Sugarbush Day School, located in the Sugarbush Village, is a state-licensed day care for children ages 6 weeks to 4 years of age. Our friendly, knowledgeable staff of childcare providers will ensure that your child is entertained and comfortable while you take a little time for yourself.

Our Winter Program operates from December 7th-March 30th. During weekdays, students will be integrated into our Day School programs in either our Nursery, Toddler, or PreK Program. On weekends, we split groups up based on age, and expected children for programing. Our experienced staff work with small groups of children to keep our ratios low and allow children fun guided play that is age appropriate.

Please bring bottles and baby food for your infant or nursery aged child. We are a breast milk friendly facility and can provide a room/area where mothers can pump or feed comfortably.
The Sugarbush Day School will provide your child snacks, lunch, and drinks while they are in our care. If you would like to pack a snack and lunch for your child, you are welcome to do so, we just ask that it does not contain any nuts.

The Sugarbush Day School is a licensed center and follows all guidelines and memos put out by the State of Vermont’s Child Development Division.
