Before and After

Wrap-Around Care

Full-Day Care That Fits Your Schedule

We know half-day preschool doesn’t work for every family. That’s why we offer wrap-around care—from 7:00 AM to 5:30 PM—so your child has a safe, familiar place to be before and after PreK.

Morning Ease
Drop off early and start the day gently. Kids enjoy breakfast or a snack and quiet activities like puzzles or books before smoothly transitioning into their PreK class.

Afternoon Comfort
After PreK ends, children stay for a relaxed afternoon with snacks, playtime, crafts, music, or rest in cozy corners if needed. It’s a peaceful wind-down to a full day of learning and fun.

With the same trusted staff all day, your child enjoys consistency and care—and you get the peace of mind that comes with one simple drop-off and pick-up.

Key Benefits

Convenience for Families

Our extended hours take the stress off parents with busy schedules. Many childcare centers offer extended hours as a great benefit for working parents, allowing you to drop off early or pick up later without rushing. Whether you have an early meeting or a late class, you can rely on us to care for your child beyond normal school times. One stop, one schedule – easy and convenient.

Consistency for Children

Children thrive on routine. With wrap-around care, your child stays in one familiar environment for the whole day instead of shuffling between different sitters or programs. They remain with teachers and friends they know, which provides emotional security. This consistent routine can help reduce anxiety and make children feel more comfortable and confident.

Enriching Afternoons

Our after-school care isn’t just supervision – it’s an extension of learning through play. In the afternoons, kids have the freedom to explore interests that there might not be time for in a busy preschool morning. They might build a big block tower, put on a pretend play show, or help water the garden. These activities foster creativity and allow children to decompress and have fun.

Balanced Routine (Active & Quiet)

We strike a balance between active play and quiet time in wrap-around hours. After a structured morning, children enjoy running and playing outside to get their wiggles out. Later, we may have a calm story time or quiet coloring session. This balance helps manage their energy and mood. If a child needs a nap, we have a cozy spot for them. Our flexible schedule adapts to the kids’ needs so they don’t get overtired.

Extra Care and Attention

With fewer children staying later in the day (not all families use full-day care), our afternoon group is often smaller, allowing even more one-on-one attention. It’s a great time for teachers to bond with children, listen to their stories, or work on a skill in a low-pressure setting. Some parents find their child’s language or social skills really blossom during these more unstructured, intimate afternoon sessions.

What Makes Us Different

More Than Just Babysitting

Our wrap-around care isn’t filler—it’s a seamless extension of your child’s learning. Caregivers and PreK teachers stay in close communication, so interests and progress carry through the whole day. If a child loved a morning activity, we might revisit it in the afternoon. We see the full day as one connected experience, not separate parts.

Safe, Consistent Care All Day Long

Our wrap-around care is led by the same trusted staff—not outside providers—so your child stays with familiar faces in a secure, well-supervised environment. We maintain proper ratios and controlled access from open to close, ensuring your child is safe, supported, and engaged no matter the hour.

Flexible Scheduling That Works for You

Choose the care that fits your life—morning, afternoon, or both. Need just a few days a week? Occasional help? We’re happy to accommodate when we can. We also offer drop-in extended care for enrolled students when space allows, so you’re covered when plans change or work runs late.
