Our Programs
Before School
Drop your child off as early as 6:30 am for time to relax, read books, play games, and talk with friends in a quiet, supervised environment before school begins.
After School
Enroll your child in our afternoon program for extended care that feels more like summer camp! Kids have time to complete homework before enjoying a wide variety of activities, including indoor and outdoor games, cooking, community service, science experiments, arts and crafts.

Testimonials
I was worried that extended day would be too much for my son after a long day at school but he is usually happy and sometimes asks to stay longer because he is having so much fun. He has formed a really close bond with his leader and he seems to have a good balance between learning, exercise, homework time, and the fun project type things they do. Its great to know he loves to go each day.
