ABOUT US
A Place Where Learning Begins with Love

Our Teaching Philosophy
- Founded in 2012 with a mission to support whole-child development
- Serving Northern Virginia families with two convenient locations
- Warm, responsive care for infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and Pre-K learners

At Happy Hearts, children are grouped by age. Each age group has age-appropriate programs that are geared towards fulfilling not just a child’s emotional and physical development but also laying a foundation of a very strong academic base.
What we offer
What We Do
At Happy Hearts Children’s Center, we offer a range of age-appropriate early childhood programs for infants, toddlers, twos, preschoolers, and Pre-K students. Our curriculum is rooted in the Pinnacle Learning System — a nationally recognized, research-based framework that supports whole-child development through play-based, hands-on experiences.
Whether your child is just beginning their learning journey or preparing for kindergarten, our programs are designed to foster emotional growth, physical development, social skills, and early academic readiness.
