School Notes
- My staff and I welcome you to our KinderCare family! Our goal is to prepare every child for school success while creating a safe and nurturing environment for them to learn. We are committed to providing the best education for your child while they have fun. We look forward to getting to know you are your family and watching your child grow, learn and imagine.
- Our fenced in center is located in a quiet business development without access to the main road. We pride ourselves on being "tucked away" but visible from Route 64. Our classroom entrance is accessible only with a parent keycode, limited to those on a written pick up/drop off permission form. Each year we provide vision and hearing screenings for the children, as well as monthly visits from a health nurse who provides tips and advice on staying healthy and strong.
