Smart Sprouts


Smart Sprouts is sponsoring the festival! Smart Sprouts is unique in town, being both an educational drop-in childcare center for children ages 1-6 and a tutoring center for students K-12. Birthday parties can be booked in the space on weekends (or weekdays by special arrangement).

During childcare hours, owner Ann and her team of playtime leaders provide a relaxed, fun environment where children learn while they play. Since all children are between twelve months and six years old, even the smallest toddlers can explore without being overwhelmed. There are no televisions or electronic toys, so imaginative play and reading are the activities of choice. Many of the attentive and engaging playtime leaders hold or are pursuing advanced degrees in education. The playtime leaders may also be magicians; a parent once returned to find her children contentedly listening to a book while wearing sparkly hats (true story).

The maximum number of children who can be at Smart Sprouts at once is just fourteen; call or email for a reservation to ensure a space. Children can play at Smart Sprouts for up to four hours per day and ten hours per week. Childcare packages are offered in increments as small as four hours. Packages with sibling discounts are available, and all hours from any package can be shared among siblings.


Tutoring is available in all subjects; tutors can also help with homework and general organization. Smart Sprouts partners with Clear Choice, a company that supplies interactive test prep software, to offer specialized test preparation for standardized tests including the ACT and SAT. Pricing for tutoring and test preparation is listed on the Smart Sprouts website.

Please support our sponsor! Smart Sprouts is located in the Courtyard at Bandywood in Green Hills (same shopping center as The Perfect Pair), and is open for childcare Monday-Friday 9am-5pm and Saturday 10am-2pm. Tutoring is available by appointment Monday-Friday 5pm-9pm and Saturdays and Sundays 2pm-9pm.
