Call it the Four Seasons of day care. It's FIO360, nestled in the heart of Atlantic Station, and it could very well be the most upscale day care in metro Atlanta.

And with a monthly price tag ranging from $1,529 for preschoolers and $1,708 for infants, it could be the most expensive, too.

Stretching 21,000 square feet, the plastics-free space features bamboo floors, Solatube skylights and saltwater fountains. It also boasts an alphabet climbing wall, non-toxic art supplies and a Lego Dome.

It's a place where children begin their day with daily affirmations and later make fishing rods out of lemon grass. Where art work is framed as if it might be on display at the nearby High Museum.

"I think there are many places that are good quality," said Dana Ginger, FIO360 executive director. "We are just taking it the next level."

Let's take a closer look inside at what the tuition gets you (chlorine-free, gel-free diapers are included). See more photos of FIO 360
