AMERICA’S MOST ACCREDITED

We’re so proud!

Nationally only 10% of daycares are accredited – nearly 100% of our learning centers are. That’s a big difference,
and that means KinderCare kids are getting the very best. Here’s why.

SCHOOL-READY

What Learning Looks Like

Our talented early-childhood teachers set kids down the path toward becoming lifelong learners in a positive, safe, and nurturing environment.

Stetson Hills KinderCare Programs

Toddler Programs (1–2 Years)

Everything in our toddler classroom is designed for little explorers. That’s
because a lot is going on at this age. When your child is wandering all over the
place, that means they’re learning and discovering new things every day. We’ll
help them explore their interests (and find new ones!) as they play and learn.

Discovery Preschool Programs (2–3 Years)

This age is filled with so much wonder and curiosity. That’s why we offer a ton
of books and toys and bring artwork down to kids eye level. Children in
discovery preschool also begin to learn how we all work together in a
classroom. Simple math and science, pretend play, and group play help them
get used to a more structured school setting.

Preschool Programs (3–4 Years)

This age is all about expression, when kids really start to form their own ideas
about what they want to play and how they want to create. Every day in our
preschool classroom, your child will explore science experiments, create
artwork, and play pretend—all the skills needed for their big next step:
kindergarten!

Prekindergarten Programs (4–5 Years)

When you walk into one of our pre-K classrooms, you’ll see artwork and
writing displayed around the room. Labels are everywhere to help kids connect
letters with words. You’ll also see pictures on the walls that reflect the families
in our community. Your child will also deepen their knowledge in language,
math, science, Spanish, and social skills.

Kindergarten Programs (5–6 Years)

Welcome to kindergarten: the gateway to grade school and everything that
comes next! Offered in select centers, our kindergarten programs have small
class sizes and curriculums that mix learning and fun.  The basic building
blocks of reading, writing, math, and science are key in kindergarten, so we
make sure they get lots of practice in all of these areas.

Before- and After-School Programs (5–12 Years)

You can count on us to provide reliable care for your school-ager while you’re
at work, with safe transportation from our center to your child’s school and
back! Whether your child wants to start a drama club, build a volcano, or
create a comic book, they will have a place to follow their dreams. Your child
will start and end the day with a whole lot of fun!

School Break Programs (preschool, prekindergarten, and school-age)

Winter break, spring break, summer break—when school’s out (but you still need to work), you
can count on KinderCare to provide a safe and supportive learning environment that’s focused
on fun. We welcome children ages 5–12 during school break times and make sure they have a
sensational, screen-free experience they won’t forget.

Participating Child Care Aware Center

KinderCare partners with Child Care Aware® of America to offer fee assistance for
Active Duty military families and flexible support to fit their needs when care at a Child
Development Center on the installation is not available.

Learning Adventures – Enrichment Program

Cooking Academy™ (3 – 12 Years)

In Cooking Academy, kids learn new recipes from cultures around the world and
develop a healthy relationship with food. They’ll whip up everything from Southwest
rainbow lettuce wraps to pumpkin muffins, building their skills in STEM, communication,
and more along the way. And yes—little chefs get to eat their culinary creations!

Music Explorers™ (2 – 4 Years)

KinderCare families are already giving a standing ovation to our newest Learning
Adventures program: Music Explorers! Kids will learn to sing, move, listen, play
instruments, and even create their own tunes. Our original curriculum blends math,
science, social studies, literacy, and mindfulness (think yoga!) for a uniquely KinderCare
way of learning the foundations of music.

Phonics Adventures® (2 – 4 Years)

Learning how to read is a whole lot of fun at KinderCare! We help kids grow to love
books and words (and get ready for kindergarten) in our Phonics Adventures program.
From discovering the basics of vowels to practicing poetry, kids learn all about letters
and sounds in small-group lessons made just for their age group. (Bonus: Kids who
attend our phonics program are more prepared than their peers for school—and we
have the data to prove it.)

STEM Innovators (3-8 Years)

You’ve probably heard a lot about how important STEM education is for your child, but
what does that really mean? Our STEM Innovators program takes kids’ natural ability to
make sense of the world and applies it to robotics, chemistry, coding, geology, and
more. While your child experiments, they’ll discover how to use technology to do
amazing things!

Dance and Soccer

Our Teachers

We’re the only company in early childhood education to select teachers based on natural talent. Being a great educator isn’t enough though.
KinderCare teachers are also amazing listeners, nurturers, boo-boo fixers, and smile-makers. Put more simply,
we love our teachers and your child will, too.

Meet just a few of our amazing KinderCare teachers!

A KINDERCARE TEACHER WITH

An Artist’s Heart

“My classroom is full of art!” says Mary Annthipie-Bane, an award-winning early childhood educator at KinderCare. Art and creative expression, she says, help children discover who they really are.

We put our best-in-class teachers in a best-in-class workplace. We’re so proud to have been named one of Gallup’s 37 winners of the Great Workplace Award.
When you put great teachers in an engaging center, your children will experience
an amazing place to learn and grow.

Walks in the nature of the historory and cultural rest

In this journey we have collected the most colorful places of the two largest cities in Colorado! It will be seven busy days during which we will visit the most interesting and beautiful locations in Denver and Colorado Springs.

Denver is the state capital and the surrounding area is home to many cultural and natural attractions. Not just because the city is considered the “gold mine” of Colorado and the capital of the mountains!

Colorado Springs is the second largest city in the state of Colorado. During our trip, we will visit the most important sights of this city – Pikes Peak, the Garden of the Gods and many other mysterious and unique places.

Garden of the Gods, Colorado: prohorov — LiveJournal

A must-see natural site in the USA – the Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

The park is a large number of red rocks of an unusual shape, formed from sedimentary rocks. This place is somewhat reminiscent of the “Valley of Ghosts” on Demerdzhi, in the Crimea, with the difference that everything is civilized here, there are several hiking trails and you do not need to climb the mountains.

I liked the history of the park. Until 1909, it was private land, but then, the owners transferred it to the city, and, according to the will of Charles Elliot Perkins (whose children just performed this act of charity), the entrance to the park was to be free. That is what he is now.

01
For a better understanding of where the Garden of the Gods is located, I will post a map with our route from the East Coast. The distance from New Haven (starting point) to Colorado Springs is 3000 kilometers. This is quite a lot – 2. 5 – 3 days of travel. For example, who does not have the task of driving all the States from ocean to ocean, as we did, it is better to immediately fly to Colorado, to Denver, and from there start a car journey to the West

02
I can’t say that the road to Colorado Springs is different. Just a track. Here, for example, I 70 passes through downtown Kansas City. At the same time, as you might guess, there are no traffic lights, left turns and other Russian nonsense

03
After Kansas City, the road landscape is completely empty. On this road you run into the mountains of Colorado. We did it when it got dark, so in the morning we got a little crazy from the change in terrain

It is better to come at dawn – look at what color the rocks are at this time of day

11
View of the top of Pikes Peak. It seems that the hill is not high, but in fact its height is 4301m. The fact is that Colorado Springs is at an altitude of 1800-1900 meters above sea level, that’s why it seems like this

13
There was not much time for the Garden of the Gods, and after walking for an hour, we headed towards Pikes Peak, which I will tell about in the next post
