At Tender Love Childcare, every child is met with warmth, intention, and a commitment to fostering curiosity, confidence, and kindness from their very first day.
Located in the heart of Bolingbrook at 145 Olympic Dr, Tender Love Childcare was founded on a simple belief: every child deserves an environment where they feel genuinely seen, safely held, and joyfully challenged.
We blend structured early-learning activities with plenty of unstructured play, because the magic of childhood happens when children are free to explore at their own pace. Our licensed, experienced caregivers treat every family like their own — because that's exactly what they are.
Each program is thoughtfully designed to meet children where they are — supporting their developmental needs while making learning feel like play.
Gentle, responsive caregiving that builds secure attachment. Our infant room offers sensory-rich activities, tummy time support, and a calm environment for your youngest learners.
Big feelings, big curiosity — our toddler program channels energy into purposeful play, language development, and the beginning of social skills in a safe, engaging space.
Building the foundation for lifelong learning. Our preschool program introduces early literacy, numeracy, and social-emotional skills through play-based, curriculum-driven experiences.
We don't just watch children — we connect with them. Every interaction is intentional, warm, and designed to build trust and confidence.
Our age-appropriate curriculum weaves early education naturally into play — building cognitive, motor, and social skills without ever feeling like "school."
With intentionally small class sizes, your child receives the individual attention they need to thrive — no one gets lost in the crowd.
Licensed, insured, and committed to the highest safety standards. From secure entry to childproofed environments, your child's wellbeing is our priority.
We understand that family schedules vary. Our flexible drop-in and full-day options are designed to work with your life, not against it.
Parents are partners. We provide regular updates, daily reports, and open-door policies so you always know how your child is doing.
"Finding Tender Love was the best decision we made. Our daughter comes home happy every day, and we never have to worry. It truly feels like family."
