Pittsford's private path to kindergarten-ready

Infant, to Toddler and Preschool to UPK Equivalent programs built around 9 Key Development Areas, taught by teachers who stay — average tenure measured in years, not months. Limited toddler and preschool openings for fall.

I’m very impressed with Inspire! Crayon Campus.

The entire staff is very welcoming and supportive. My son and I instantly felt at home. I know he’s in great hands – where he’ll be safe and cared for while having so much fun. Also, their facilities are clean and well-kept. I highly recommend this location to all looking for child care. We’re so lucky to have a spot. <3

From the early days until kindergarten and beyond, our dedication extends to working collaboratively with you.

How we get children kindergarten-ready

Kindergarten-ready isn’t an accident — it’s a plan. At Inspire! Pittsford, every child follows an individualized learning path built on our 9 Key Development Areas, from early language and literacy to social confidence, problem-solving, and the fine motor skills kindergarten teachers expect on day one. We don’t wait for readiness to happen. We build it, child by child, and we show you the progress along the way.

A learning path built around your child.
No two children develop the same way, so no two children here follow the same path. Drawing on your child’s interests, your family’s goals, and daily observation from their teachers, we craft an individualized plan — and adjust it as your child grows. You’ll always know where your child is, where they’re headed, and what comes next.

Teachers who stay — and the difference that makes.
Parents tell us the number one reason they choose Inspire! is trust in our teachers. That trust is built on continuity: our educators stay with us year after year, which means the teacher who knows your toddler’s quirks in September still knows them in June — and often greets them by name at kindergarten send-off. In early childhood, consistency isn’t a nice-to-have. It’s how confident learners are made.

Full Spanish immersion, included.
Every preschooler here learns in a full English-and-Spanish environment — a genuine bilingual advantage that strengthens cognitive development, cultural understanding, and long-term academic performance. It’s woven into every day, not offered as an add-on, and it’s something most programs in the area simply can’t match.

The result: children who walk into kindergarten confident, curious, and prepared — and parents who never have to wonder if they chose the right place to start.

Our center has been newly refurbished, with all new floors, walls, decor, and more! Take a virtual tour of our facility.

Jennifer "Jen" Price, Executive Director

Hello! My name is Jennifer (Jen) Price, and I am proud to serve as the Executive Director for the Inspire Learning and Childcare locations in Brockport, Penfield, and Pittsford.
 
I joined the Inspire! family in July 2014 as an assistant teacher in the infant classroom at our Brockport location. Since then, I’ve had the privilege of growing within this incredible organization, eventually stepping into the role of Executive Director. My journey has given me firsthand experience in the classroom, deep insight into our programs, and a true appreciation for the amazing educators and families who make Inspire so special.
I am passionate about creating welcoming, nurturing environments where children feel safe, confident, and excited to learn. Our centers are more than schools — they are places of belonging, growth, and connection.
 
When I’m not at the center, I love spending time with my family, gardening, being creative, and baking.
At Inspire, we believe in building strong relationships and partnering with families. We are honored to be part of your child’s early learning journey — and we can’t wait to become a part of your family, just as you become part of ours!

“As first time parents my husband and I were very nervous about choosing the right daycare for our infant. We have been incredibly pleased with the care our daughter receives at Inspire Pittsford! The staff are so kind, truly care for all the children and are very respectful to the parents. Our daughter has thrived in the infant room and absolutely loves when she goes to daycare. We know we made the right choice with Inspire!”
