Program Details

Our Mission...


Our mission is to offer a structured, age appropriate program of learning that meets the unique needs of each child.  Our goal is to encourage social, emotional, personal, and physical growth for each child.



The Staff



The staff at the Center are trained professionals who have experience in working with young children.  Prior to employment at the Center, everyone goes through interviews, background and reference checks, including a criminal history release screen.


Our Goals


The goals of the Center include providing all children with:
  • A safe and clean environment.
  • A caring environment where the children can play and learn positive guidance and loving care.
  • Care that promotes their social, emotional, physical, and intellectual development through developmentally appropriate activities.
  • Opportunities for them to be challenged to learn and reach their potential at their own pace.
Our Curriculum


Our  curriculum is carefully designed to meet each child's individual needs.  We engage all our children with educational experiences including art, blocks, creative dramatics, discovery games, field trips, free play, math concepts, movies, music, puzzles, story time, and much more.

Our agency participates in the USDA Child and Adult Care Food Program administered by the Kentucky Department of Education. Meals are served at no separate charge to enrolled participants at the center and are provided without regared to race, color, national origin, sex, age or disability.
