What We Offer at Our Waterford Daycare and Preschool:
At the Breakie Bunch, we know that each child is unique, so we have specially designed classes for each age range that will allow your child to be engaged through age-appropriate activities for playing, reading, singing, talking, and more.
Infants: 6 Weeks – 1 Year
Perfect for children aged about six weeks to one-year-old, our infant classrooms focus on a great line of communication between parents and our teachers. We use an app called Tadpoles, which makes communication instantaneous and more thorough than ever before. Not only do we log your child’s sleeping and eating schedules, but our teachers also periodically send photos of your child throughout the day.
Young Toddler: Ages 1-2
Around age one, we move children up from our infant class to the young toddler rooms because, at this age, they’re out of the baby phase and ready for a little more routine. Our highly trained Waterford childcare teachers begin to introduce a reliable schedule into the young toddler’s lives, getting them used to eating lunch and snacks together as a group and doing other learning activities in the same order each day. We take great pride in allowing our young toddlers to have the ability to explore the world around them while gaining a little more independence.
Toddler: Ages 2-3
Toddlers are generally curious and full of energy! We love to harness that energy into curriculum and activities that help them learn and grow. Our primary focus at this age is getting your toddler ready for preschool, which means working on social skills and emotional management. We also begin to introduce toddlers to Spanish and start potty training in our Waterford daycare’s toddler classes!
Preschool Prep: Ages 3-4
Preschool Prep at The Breakie Bunch Learning Center in Waterford is all about preparing your child for school by highlighting five key areas of school readiness:
- Literacy
- Social and emotional skills
- Math
- Science
- Physical health
We want to expose your child to a variety of activities that not only prepare them for school but provide them with a sense of independence. Our Waterford preschool teachers want to ensure that every child is getting the support they need in individual and group time. We provide one-on-one time to adapt lessons to fit your child’s needs and group time for story-times, group activities, and more.
Preschool: Ages 4-5
Our Waterford preschool program encourages children to learn, explore, create, and problem-solve with all the confidence in the world. We touch on many of the same subjects from our preschool prep class but take it a step further to make sure the jump from preschool to kindergarten is as smooth as possible. We dig a little deeper into all the skills that will make your child’s first year of school a success!
Summer Camp: Ages 5-12
In addition to our year-round Waterford childcare and preschool classes, we also provide an excellent summer camp for school-aged children that need somewhere to learn and grow each summer. We have weekly themes and always plan fun surprise events for campers, like live animals, water play, and so much more! We offer flexible scheduling options during summer camp!

Check out what our families have to say about The Breakie Bunch Learning Center:
“Since day one, I wasn’t too keen on sending my son Mason to daycare, but since getting a new full-time job in September, enrolling him in The Breakie Bunch was by far one of the best decisions I’ve made! Mason loves all of the teachers here, and he has learned so much, it’s mind-blowing! From sign language to the imagination he has gained, I’m so happy with this center. Laura has done a great job as director, and I recommend The Breakie Bunch to all my friends who are in search of a daycare. We couldn’t be happier here.”
“Great daycare center in Waterford, MI. The center offers a lot of great things, starting with programs that come in for the children, such as amazing athletics or gymnastics. The playground is COMPLETELY fenced in!!! They teach sign language and Spanish to the kids too! There are field trips for the kids, and even events for the adults.”
