Students at Day Nursery Hendricks County got a head start celebrating National Talk Like a Pirate Day (which is today in case you haven’t had a chance to check your social calendar aaarrrrgggggggggg). Last Friday, the students (and a few brave teachers) dressed up like pirates and played the part. Next week it will be backward day at the Avon Center. Can’t wait to see what they come up with! If you would like your child to get a great head start on their education, come take a tour of this beautiful center located on the campus of IU Health West Hospital. The center is open to the public and we are currently enrolling new students.
Today’s face of Day Nursery comes from our Ruth A. Lilly Center. Center Director Shannon Garrity shared the photo and her observation of the moment.
This is one of our new toddlers using scissors for the first time. It is one of my favorite pictures. I think it depicts exactly what we are talking about when we say a learning environment through play and exploration.

Three centers down and 4 to go! The Day Nursery center calendars are always busy in the fall and one of the most important dates to circle is Picture Day. Our Avon, Federal and Ruth A. Lilly Centers have completed their pictures and today is the first of three days at our IU Health Center downtown. The State Center pictures are scheduled for September 21-23; the Ft. Harrison Center for October 6 & 7 and our Northwest Center pictures wrap up the list on October 13 & 14. Joslyn Sullivan who works with our Child Care Answers program shared a funny story from her daughter’s picture day at our Avon Center. When asked if she would like to take a picture with her Mommy, little Lillianna, almost 3 said “No Mommy, I would like to smile alone.”
