A Message From Rosie
Owner, Administrator & Teacher

Well… Hello, I know my personal note to my parents and my new families looking for the right place for their child is way late.  My apologies!
Our center is already beginning to plan our School Age Summer Program.  This is exciting because our center does enrichments for your child that other centers do not, or if they do, they charge you for them.  We do not charge you except in rare cases of Jerzee’s lunch.
At our expense, we have hired a summer tutor for K – 5 students – once a week for 1 hour, 2 sessions – K-2 is first session and 3 – 5 is 2nd session.  Pam, our tutor is returning from last year and we are blessed to have her.  She is also starting a reading tutoring program for one hour after school next week, so we want to help our students stay sharp and focused on that reading!
We have been donated a used upright piano; the kids love it!   We are looking for a teacher to teach in small groups.  Again, this is on us, not you – the families.
While we do not do field trips on a bus, we have walking field trips:
                With parent’s full blessing (signed permission slips)
  • We walk to Strickland's once a week for ice cream – we buy it!
  • We walk to the Interstate Theater once every other week for a matinee, popcorn, and a drink!  Again, our expense, not yours.
  • And every Thursday, our school kids eat lunch at Jerzees.  They are always so well-behaved.  Now, this year we are asking parents to donate $5.00 per child toward their meal.  The children will be taught how to be responsible for the money and turn it in with the bill. 
  • Once a week, the school age children will prepare their own lunch – they may make tacos, sandwiches, or put together a casserole in the morning for lunch!  They also will be baking something each week! 
As you can see, our school age program is 2nd to none!  I hope you and your child will join us this year!  It is not a huge program and limited to 18 students, so if interested, please give Rosie a call today.  We offer the program full time or daily for those who just do not need us every day.
The only other items I wanted to mention:
  • We are expanding our Toddler 1 & Toddler 2 rooms in November, so they should be ready in January for your child to join us.  Come visit and see our plans.
  • We are still the lowest price center in our area.  We are personable, caring and really down to earth!  We simply believe our care is small enough that your child feels like he is home with family during the day!  That is our goal- we sneak in a lot of education so do not worry on that front okay!  Loving them, hugging, caring and making them comfortable and trusting does not mean we cannot educate – we educate a lot, but we make sure they know we love them first!  We just do not have to be so high-priced to educate children – there is only so much money to go around in your budget!  And, do you know we no longer have vacation holding fees!
Hope to see you soon!

What Parents Say...

"Where do I even began with this daycare and their staff? ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! My son is currently going though some hard times with his disabilities! Let me just say they have cared SO WELL for him and his brother! They’re amazing! Words cannot express how awesome they are to myself and my children.. I 110% recommended them!"
-Jessika C.


"Love love love this place. The staff are well qualified and loving to all the children who go there. Currently my family and extended family have a total of 6 children attending. We have children in the before and after school program as well as full time daycare, part time day care and preschool. Having children in all different classrooms gives us a rare opportunity to get to know all of the teachers.
We have a mix of outgoing and very timid children in our family, ages ranging from 8 years old to two years old. All of the children have acclimated well to the staff and the program. They love going to "school" and have developed strong bonds with their teachers.
I can't say enough about the owner, Rosie. She has taken my family under her wing and has gone over and above to make all of us feel loved.
This is truly a family oriented care center.
If you want the best of the best, this is your place."
​-Wendy L.


"Rosie and her staff are great! Rosie loves the kids and mine for sure love her."
-Aubrea R​.
