SolBe has two interconnected schools: the Nursery School and the Canopy School.
To continually create the highest-quality early learning experience for your family, SolBe invested eight years of learning and thoughtfully experimenting to provide our students with a two-school model.
Age-specific Campuses
SolBe Nursery School and SolBe Canopy School are a 2-minute drive from each other. We intentionally kept programs close so they could benefit from the same nutrition program, parent community, and educator teams.
SolBe Nursery School: 8 weeks - 24 months
Establishes character foundations for social-emotional learning, first friendships, and resilience.
SolBe Canopy School: 2 - 6 years
Builds on character foundations from the Nursery School, weaving in increased complexity, collaboration, and school-age readiness.
Our brains reach 90% of their adult size by the age of five—that is an EXCEPTIONAL amount of growth. In the first 24 months, brains and bodies are learning how to receive information. In the next 36 months, they are practicing how to express it.
Over the past eight years we've thoughtfully tested and experimented better ways to nurture growth at each specific stage. Through all of this learning, we discovered the best way to augment and encourage development was to create two different campuses: a nursery and preschool.
Each location is purposefully architected and outfitted to enhance development during the first five years of life.
Our Nursery program has shorter spaces, materials, furniture, and windows. We use muted colors for eye develop. Each texture, sounds, taste, color, structure is purposefully chosen for our youngest minds and bodies.

Life moves faster and is more chaotic than ever before. Current child care centers and nursery schools leave us torn between what we think is best for our child and what we know we need for ourselves.
Your wellness and the wellness of your child shouldn’t be a question of either/or. SolBe is an early learning center committed to yes/and. Yes to providing the best education experience for your child and to supporting you in living your life to the fullest.
Your student gets the best possible program at each age and milestone.
Our Nursery canopy builds a sense of safety, trust, and confidence. Our Canopy uses this foundation to further develop autonomy, a love for learning, and lifelong friendships.
Unlike other programs, we don't have to compromise. We don't have to sacrific needing items, spaces, and designs to fit two very different needs. Your students get the best possible program to establish your child's very first character traits then further develop them through layered comlexity.
Most schools must compromise aspects of their environment to accommodate all age groups in one space. What's more, the team's attention at those schools is necessarily spread across more developmental stages.
Our spaces are one way we help our students become conscious, competent, caring, and collaborative individuals.
