Parent-Teacher Bonds Are Your Pillar Of Support
Your child has the best start possible and benefits from a solid partnership between you and their teachers. Parent-teacher relationships rooted in trust help make sure children have the support, positivity, and foundation necessary to reach their full potential.
Personalized Lesson Match Your Child’s Learning Style
Expert teachers use the Creative Curriculum® to teach your child everything they need to know in reading, writing, and math. They use hands-on and messy play to keep the fun in learning and prepare for their path to Kindergarten.
Open-Ended Play Reveals Their Creative, Problem-Solving Skills
Children love open-ended materials because of the possibilities they afford them. Using open-ended materials encourages imagination, creativity, and problem-solving skills, so play can be richer and more complex. This kind of play ensures rich learning and is fun!
Your Child Builds New Worlds With Loose Parts
With loose parts, children have the freedom and space to arrange, stack, count, sort, pull apart, and manipulate simple items to create their own rules without limit. They use creativity and interact with variables to strengthen both fine motor skills and cognitive function.
Your Child Practices Their Social-Emotional Skills Daily
Teachers use the Second Step® curriculum to show your child how to develop empathy, take turns, and communicate with gentle guidance. They are more than ready to advance to their next level and thrive in a classroom environment.
Healthy, Active Fun With Multiple Outdoor Play Times
Your child has outside time to breathe in the fresh air each day, let off steam, and maintain essential physical activity. They love to explore their natural environment in a beautiful garden, spend time with friends, and get to know themselves.
Your Parent App Will Keep You In The Loop
Teachers make sure you receive adorable pictures and videos directly to your phone through Brightwheel™. Essential updates and notifications give you peace of mind and ensure that you’re consistently a part of your child’s progress.
Teachers With Degrees Help Build Strong Minds
Your child receives the very best education at the hands of teachers who hold a Child Development Associate® (CDA) or an Associates Degree in Early Childhood. Teachers are passionate, dedicated, and experienced, and ready to pour into your child’s life.

Hear What Parents Have To Say...
Lena and Priceless Treasures have been a fantastic child care facility for our littlest one. It is obvious that Lena and her team are dedicated to the kids and giving the best care and it shows. You get to see what is going on during the day with what they are doing, eating, sleeping, and it's great. This is a fantastic place to trust your kids at and would not hesitate to recommend anyone to Priceless Treasures.

I can confidently say Lena has really built something special and hired a phenomenal team. Both of our daughters are so excited to go each day and love telling us about all the fun things they’ve done when they come home. The Brightweel app they use is fantastic with photos/videos posted throughout the day as well as information on what they ate, when their naps were, diaper changes, and other updates/announcements. The whole experience made us so happy!

My son entered a little after age 2 and has thrived in this environment. My son had some developmental delay concerns I wasn’t aware of and his wonderful and perceptive teachers brought it to our attention in a caring and professional way and his doctors and therapists are constantly impressed with how much he is improving in his daycare setting. The entire staff is amazing and the owner is very involved and personable.
- Caitlin Taylor
Priceless treasures has been such an amazing place for our son. They are always so clean and friendly and we have loved how much our son has grown in their care. We love everyone there especially the owner Lena and our sons teacher Ms. Katie. They are truly the best 🙂
- Ashley Stockbridge
Never once have I felt any unease about my children attending here. The staff are courteous and polite and make the effort to get to know and work with your children. I truly can’t say enough AMAZING things about Lena and her staff. Thank you for everything you guys do!

My son is 9 months old and currently in the infant room with Chelsea and Yesenia. He has some challenging health needs, which means that my husband and I are constantly communicating with daycare, to relay the latest recommendations by our medical team. Chelsea and Yesenia have been absolutely WONDERFUL, ensuring that all of our son's care needs are being met and quickly and effectively communicating with us should any issues arise. We cannot recommend Priceless Treasure highly enough!
- Ashley Schweickart
My 3 year old niece has been attending for almost 6 months now and it’s hands down the best daycare our family has found in Salem. Staff is attentive and genuinely concerned for the well being of every child there. Couldn’t recommend this daycare more 10/10 A++🙌🏻👍🏻
- Joseph Stoll
Great staff. They are kind, caring, competent, flexible, and very focused on helping the kids succeed. My 3 year old loves all of his teachers, and my infant gets super excited to see her caregiver at drop off. I go to work knowing they are happy and well cared for.
- Tamara Ottum
I love that I don’t have to worry leaving my son when I go to work. I know he is safe and loved, not only by his teachers but by all of the staff. Chelsea and Yesi are an amazing team and provide lots of love, hugs, and age appropriate activities for all the littles. There are never tears with drop off, and that means the world to my husband and I.
- Megan Axtell
