Welcome & Connection

Your child starts their afternoon with a warm smile and a chance to transition smoothly from school. We emphasize social connection through group read-alouds and gentle check-ins.

Curiosity takes center stage. Whether it's a hands-on project, arts and crafts, or singing songs, we provide the tools for children to discover new passions and critical thinking skills.

Common Questions

What activities are included in the program?

We offer a variety of engaging activities designed to support children's development, including creative arts, literacy, exploration, physical activity, games, free play, and more.

How do we ensure the safety of our students?

Our program is housed in the Children's School building so every safety precaution your child has during the school day will be continued through after care (visitors must ring bell and be admitted to the building, children must be signed out by an authorized pick up person, staff has training in first aid and CPR, etc).

Who are the staff members?

Our team consists of many of the same staff members your child sees during the school day. They are dedicated to creating a nurturing and joyful environment for every child.

What is the enrollment process?

To enroll your child, please complete the application through our website or send us an email. We will guide you through the necessary paperwork and next steps.

What is the staff/student ratio?

We will always have a minimum of one adult for every eight children.  We strive to have an additional adult above the ratio at all times.
