Our talented early-childhood teachers set kids down the path toward becoming lifelong learners in a positive, safe, and nurturing environment.

Welcome to Sunflower Hill Child Care. We are a LifeWays daycare, inspired by Waldorf, with a healthy, holistic approach to childcare. We are growing and offer quality care at two locations in the metro area. We believe that the experiences of early childhood help lay the foundation for the child’s future learning and interest in the world. Young children love to play, explore, and discover new things. One has only to observe young children to realize that they are always moving. They also have very active imaginations, if given the chance to exercise them. Young children are taking their first steps in socializing with peers, learning how to share, and developing trust and respect for their caregivers. Our program is designed to encourage and support their healthy development.


For anyone looking for a wonderful daycare for children 2 and up, I heartily recommend Sunflower Hill Child Care. It’s a small Waldorf-inspired daycare with exceptional staff. Kathy cares deeply about each of her charges, and hires other caregivers who likewise seem to have infinite reserves of energy, patience, and good humor.

Kathy and her staff are so warm and wonderful. I can’t say enough about this place and how my daughter has grown so much in one short year! I love how they are always outside and coming up with stories. If you want your kids to learn how to be good, caring people, I can’t recommend this place enough!

Our two-year old daughter has been going to the Glencoe location now for two months and she LOVES it. Kathy and her staff have done an amazing job getting us adjusted (it took a lot for me, less for her) and we couldn’t be happier! Our daughter comes home every day talking about her friends, talking about all the cool stuff she saw outside (they have a very buzz-worthy pumpkin patch) and singing the songs she learned there.

This daycare has a warm and caring staff with an inviting and comfortable environment. Our son was very happy there and although we’ve moved out of state, he still fondly reminisces about his teachers and friends there. We miss it very much.

At Sunflower Hill Child Care, we understand that early childhood is a time when learning, play, and socialization are all fundamental to healthy development. Our holistic approach to child care begins with treating every child as a human in progress, made up of a body, soul, and spirit that all need to be nurtured.

4worldlovers: All 2023 waitlists are on HOLD. This means we are not adding new inquiring families to our waitlist at this time. This includes infants, toddlers and preschoolers.

If you have been referred by a currently enrolled family, please email us with the parent who has referred you. We will consider adding referred families to our waitlist only if Infant will be under 4 months of age at some point in 2023.

We are also always seeking to expand the diversity of our families currently enrolled, so please do email us if you consider your family to be diverse and your infant will be under 4 months of age at some point in 2023.

CLC enrolls infants in a class cohort of 2-4 infants at a time every 3-6 months. Class cohort is then guaranteed their enrollment space in all the older infant and toddler classrooms to follow. Class cohort must be within 2.5 – 4 months of age to be eligible for our Caterpillar Classroom.

Infant waitlist for infants 5 months – 19 months remains on HOLD at this time for any new inquiries. Older infant openings only become available when a currently enrolled family is to withdraw from CLC, which rarely happens for the infant age group.

Toddler and Preschool waitlists remain on HOLD for all new inquiries.

2024 waitlist is not open and we are not providing tours at this time. Once our waitlist reopens again, we do not charge a waitlist fee. Our website is updated on the 1st of every month. Thanks for understanding!

We are a family owned and operated business. We take pride in being a Spanish Immersion center and hope you will join us in this wonderful educational experience! Having access to both Spanish and English can provide children with great opportunities in the future. All of our employees speak Spanish. Infants and toddlers are only spoken to in Spanish.

As always, we encourage parents to be involved in their child’s learning process every step of the way. Parents may find themselves singing Spanish songs, reciting the days of the week in Spanish, and much more with their children. Most of our Preschool graduates enroll in Elementary Schools that offer a Spanish component and are very competitive to be accepted into.

For all children under 2 years of age, CLC currently offers M-TH care only. No Friday care available. No part time 2-3 day options, only M-TH care.

M-TH offered for toddlers. Occasional Friday drop in days will be available for toddlers on the M-TH schedule depending on teacher availability. Friday drop ins for toddlers are usually available 1-2 times a month if there is teacher availability.

Enrolled children must be up to date on all Colorado required vaccinations. It is parent’s responsibility to provide CLC with the required forms to avoid a lapse in care.

Our classrooms are maintained and updated on a regular basis. Our custom woodwork is brought to you by a small business, Sam’s Custom Woodwork. Specializing in childcare furniture, custom built ins and mud rooms. They service Denver and surrounding suburbs.

Stay active in winter — no matter the weather — with some of these fun indoor activities! Create shapes on the floor with painter’s tape. Then give your children directions like “Crawl to the triangle” or “Hop in the square.” This helps them with gross motor skills and shape recognition. Dance! Put on some of your favorite music and let loose. Make up silly moves and try to copy each other. Your little ones will love laughing and dancing with you. Try introducing yoga. Start with child-friendly poses like cat and cow, bridge, happy baby, downward facing dog and tree. Build an obstacle course — use what you have on hand like pillows to jump on or painter’s tape to create a “balance beam.” Visit The Goddard School website for more fun indoor activities: https://bit.ly/3iDATF7

Looking for a way to get your child game-day ready? Here are a few of our favorite football activities that get your little athletes moving.

Mile High Early Learning strives to fulfill our vision–to joyfully welcome everyone into our learning community, prioritize equity, and find strength in diversity. As we have seen and experienced, the world we live in does not reflect these same values.


Our mission at MHEL is to cultivate every child’s potential. Our children are observing us and acting upon what they see. We know that they recognize unequal treatment based on skin color by age 2; demonstrate social bias by age 3; and recognize and act against racial injustice by ages 4 and 5. Our children and families come from 18 different countries and speak 30 different languages. We have committed in our work to deepen our understanding of race and diversity and to call out and act when we see racism and injustice so that all of our children will thrive.


Part of our work extends beyond the classroom. It’s speaking up when we see racism. It’s advocating for changes in laws and policies that ignore these institutional barriers. It’s making others listen when they want to walk away.


We do not yet live in a world where everyone is treated equally. We do not yet live in a world where the color of your skin doesn’t limit your destiny. Together we need to create the world where we want to live.


As we celebrate the past 50 years providing services to children farthest from resources, we also envision what is possible for the next 50 years. Our 2022 strategic framework, which was adopted by our Board of Directors in June 2022, is the product of hundreds of hours gathering the thoughts, ideas, and dreams of Mile High Early Learning families, staff, and key stakeholders. Our Initiatives are centered on three focus areas where Mile High Early Learning will prioritize its work for the next one to two years. Download our new strategic framework.

4worldlovers: Hello, we are Rick and Alicia Grenolds - proud owners of Primrose School at the Denver Tech Center. Having both come from the healthcare industry, we are dedicated to positively impacting children's lives in a safe and nurturing learning environment.

As parents of two young girls, we understand the importance of finding high-quality, exceptional child care that Primrose Schools offers the community. When we began looking for child care, we struggled to find an option that met our needs; however, as soon as we were introduced to Primrose, we immediately understood why the school had earned such an incredible reputation. We instantly felt at home and were thoroughly impressed by the welcoming staff, proven curriculum and unique approach to early childhood education.

We were so impressed that Rick decided to make a career change to dedicate himself fully to opening a Primrose School in the heart of the Denver Tech Center. Rick is at the school every day greeting/touring families and providing support for our management team and teachers, to ensure they have the depth of resources and on-going training necessary to provide an exceptional early learning experience for the children. Alicia continues her primary career as a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner at Children's Hospital; however, she also serves as the school's nurse consultant, providing training and resources for our teachers and families.
