What Sets Yellow Brick Road Apart

Our Minnetonka child care at Yellow Brick Road is locally owned and has been trusted by families since 2006. Our approach is play-based, child-interest guided, and teacher-led, delivered in small classrooms with low teacher ratios by teachers who stay, so your child sees familiar faces every day. You will get photos, messages, and daily updates through the YBR Connect app, plus year-round outdoor play on our playground. 

What Your Child's Day Looks Like​

  • Teacher-planned and child-initiated activities based on your child’s interests and developmental stage
  • Outdoor learning year-round with lessons rooted in nature and seasonal exploration
  • On-site enrichment programs including Soccer Shots, Tippi Toes dance, Growing With Music, and Tennis Time
  • 2-way communication app so you receive photos, updates, and stay connected with your child’s teachers throughout the day
  • Clean, well-maintained center built for fun and learning in a safe environment

YBR in Action

Where the Path to Life is Laid One Yellow Brick at a Time.

Our Mission

“To put good humans into the world, and leave it better than we found it!”

We believe that every child is unique and will grow at their own pace. Our teachers spend time nurturing children’s strengths and encouraging them to reach new heights. YBR’s philosophical beliefs are based upon standards established by the National Association for the Education of Young Children, knowledge of child development, theories of child behavior, and acceptable best practices for educating young children. We are dedicated to helping your child grow at the pace that is right for them while always spending the time to nurture their strengths.
