Summer Little Kids Club

New for Summer 2026, join us for all day childcare for three and four-year olds (33 months as of 6/1/2026) at the Early Learning and Family Center. Our full day summer program that runs from 7:30am to 5:30pm offers a blend of fun-filled experiences and meaningful academic enrichment, creating the perfect balance for growing minds. Throughout the summer, children will enjoy in-house field trips and special events such as bounce houses, face painting, and animal  visits, all brought directly to our facility for safe and exciting exploration. 

Along with these experiences, our Little Kids Club team continues to support early academic skills through hands-on, age appropriate activities that build confidence and curiosity. Little Kids Club this summer can provide the dependable and high-quality care that your family is looking for!
