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.

Maryville KinderCare Programs

Infant Programs (6 weeks–1 year)

Leaving your baby in someone else’s care is a big step. Everyone at our
centers—most importantly, our naturally gifted infant teachers—will work with
you to make sure the transition goes smoothly. When you step into our infant
classroom, you’ll see how much we want your infant to feel safe, loved, and
ready to explore their world.

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.

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. )

Spanish

Spanish Adventures provides young learners with a foundation for later success with
the Spanish language. Music, games, children’s Spanish literature, and other tools give
children multiple opportunities to hear, practice, and see Spanish language to develop
vocabulary and conversation skills. Curriculum includes lessons on greetings, numbers,
colors, animals, family, body parts, and pets, as well as how to engage conversationally
during common scenarios at home, a restaurant, or at the zoo.

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

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.

Family Stories

Don’t take our word for it. Hear what our families have to say about our amazing center!

• “When choosing a place for care for your child, you need to look no further. An exceptional Director is equivalent to any exceptional school and Lisa McMahan and her management team is the perfect example of excellence. All the teaching staff understand that your child is your most precious commodity and besides providing the basics: food, safety, education, and love, there is so much more than encompasses the KinderCare experience. They all have an innate ability to see the totality of all the children’s diverse needs, which might include the importance of teaching the ‘whole’ child in their social, emotional, physical and intellectual areas of development and/or teaching tolerance and acceptance. Happily, it is not only myself, but the children and parents of this school who are the recipients of such profound professional dedication. Thank You!”

  Louise W.

  – KinderCare Parent

• Our family absolutely loves Maryville KinderCare. This was our first choice in looking for a safe and secure school for our daughter. The teachers are so loving and each one goes the extra mile to ensure that our daughter feels special and appreciated each and every day. She loves going to school because the teachers make all the difference in her learning experience and that makes me happy as a parent to see how happy she is at school. We have been loyal parents for almost 5 years and our daughter participates in music and phonics lessons, as well as the dance class taught at the center by Danse ET Plus. We get feedback daily on how our daughter is progressing and she’s always excited to point out her artwork in the classroom or talk about what they did at school each day. We wanted our daughter to have a positive experience with school and learning prior to starting Kindergarten and Maryville KinderCare has done just that! We couldn’t have found a better school for our family. Thank you Maryville Kindercare for helping to nourish and develop our daughter’s love of learning.

  History . Calderón was looking for the perfect place to relocate his family and, according to tradition, with the help of a local resident, he came to find a spring near what is now the courthouse of the parish of Saint-François.

  Native American. Deciding that this was a great place to make a home, Murphy purchased a Spanish Land Grant, which allowed him and his family to establish a settlement along the coast. Saint Francois river.

  During his journey back to Kentucky, Murphy died, leaving his wife Sarah and their adult sons to establish a settlement, which they did around 1800 and named the settlement Murphy. Sarah is known to have gathered a premier Protestant Sunday School west of the Mississippi River. Because Spanish law forbids any religious services that were not Roman Catholic, Sarah and her students secretly organized the training.

  Murphy Settlement Post Office opened in 1817 following the annexation of land to the United States in 1803 as part of the Louisiana Purchase. Missouri became a state in 1821 as part of the Missouri Compromise. In 1822, William Crawford Murphy contributed 52 acres (210,000 m ² ) land to establish the administrative center of the county that was soon to become the county of Saint-François. Murphy’s settlement was renamed Farmington in 1825, taking its name from the area’s rich agricultural land. ^[7] Farmington was incorporated as a city in 1836 and became a village 20 years later in 1856.

  In the mid-19th century, Farmington achieved growth and economic prosperity with the construction of the historic Plank Road, which stretched from Pilot Pen to Ste. Genevieve. The road was built to transport goods from ships located along the river to the mine and to move the Iron mine to vehicles. The route was soon taken over by the St. Louis, Iron Mountain and Louis Southern Railroad and the Iron Mountain Railroad.

  The first public school was built in 1870 and 1879. Farmington has received recognition as a fourth-class city, a recognition that was surpassed in 1981 when Farmington became a third-class city.

  Zheleznogorsk: Closed city of Zheleznogorsk

  Zheleznogorsk is located on the right bank of the Yenisei River in the foothills of the Ataman Range, a spur of the Sayan Mountains, 64 km north of Krasnoyarsk. Near the city, small rivers Kantat and Baikal flow, near the city there are lakes Goluboe and More.

  Status Zheleznogorsk is defined as a closed administrative-territorial entity (ZATO), an urban district. The city covers an area of ​​45,667 hectares. In addition to the city of Zheleznogorsk, ZATO includes four villages – Podgorny, Tartat, Dodonovo and Novy Put, as well as one village – Shivera.

  The history of Zheleznogorsk is closely connected with the development of the nuclear industry in Russia. In the late 1940s in the USSR, the construction of enterprises for the production of components of nuclear weapons was carried out at an accelerated pace. One of the secret plants for the production of weapons-grade plutonium was required to be located near a river or lake (to take water for cooling reactors), far enough from the state border, in a non-seismic area near a large industrial center and always underground. According to the calculations of scientists, the 200-meter thickness of the earth could protect the main object from a missile and bomb strike.

  A site with a mountain range in the middle reaches of the Yenisei was chosen. In May 1949, a survey expedition from the Leningrad Design Institute arrived in the Krasnoyarsk Territory for the final selection of the construction site.

  On February 26, 1950, the Decree of the Council of Ministers of the USSR signed by I. V. Stalin on the construction of plant No. 815 was issued. And already in March 1950, a group of 22 designers and surveyors from Lengiprostroy landed on the site of the future construction site.

  October 19In 1950, the prisoners of the forced labor camp built a 51 km railway line along the route Bazaikha station of the Krasnoyarsk railway – Sotsgorod.

  In the summer of 1950, work began on the preparation of mining operations in the rock mass to accommodate the future plant No. 815. In the first years of the construction of the plant, there were few civilian specialists at the construction site, the city and industrial facilities were created mainly by military builders and prisoners.

  By 1953 construction had become global. A woodworking plant, brick and concrete factories, sand and gravel quarries began to work. 234 residential buildings appeared in the city, including 18 stone ones, the Spartak cinema, three schools, three canteens, a kindergarten, and a hospital campus.

  On March 17, 1954, the worker’s settlement of plant No. 815 received the status of a city and a name: Zheleznogorsk for closed correspondence between party and Soviet bodies, Krasnoyarsk-26 for open correspondence.

  One of the most significant years in the history of the young city was 1958. On August 19, 1958, the first reactor of the mining and chemical plant, AD, was put into operation. The second reactor for the production of plutonium-239, ADE-1, was put into operation just three years later, on June 27, 1961.

  the need to deliver an atomic bomb anywhere in the world. The missiles were developed by specialists from the Special Design Bureau No. 1 under the leadership of S. P. Korolev.

  On June 4, 1959, an order was issued to establish a branch of the Special Design Bureau No. 1 in Krasnoyarsk-26 – now it is OAO Information Satellite Systems named after Academician M. F. Reshetnev. On December 31, 1960, the enterprise produces the first batch of gyro devices. In January 1962, the first rocket was launched from the Kapustin Yar cosmodrome, assembled and tested by specialists from the Design Bureau of Applied Mechanics.

  1964 became a special year in the history of the city. In January, the ADE-2 reactor was launched at the MCC, and in August three Kosmos satellites developed by NPO PM were put into orbit. At the same time, specialists from the State Chemical Combine and VNIPIET developed and implemented the world’s first scheme for using heat from the ADE-2 reactor for heat supply and hot water supply to Krasnoyarsk-26.

  Along with industrial facilities, residential areas were also built. By 1980, the northern and central parts of the city were built up, mainly with large-panel houses, which were part of the architectural style of “Soviet classicism” brought to the closed city by Leningrad architects.

  A well-developed infrastructure has been formed in the city, including schools, kindergartens, a hospital complex, a network of grocery and department stores, consumer services, a number of sports and cultural institutions. There were an operetta theater, a puppet theater, eight libraries, a music school and three cinemas.

  1990s period became one of the most complex in the history of the city and its main enterprises. Nevertheless, the city managed to preserve the main industries and the system of municipal city-supporting enterprises. The social security of the inhabitants of Krasnoyarsk-26 remained one of the highest in the Krasnoyarsk Territory.

  July 14, 1992 Krasnoyarsk-26 was officially classified as a closed territorial-administrative formation with military-industrial facilities located on them. The city was named after Zheleznogorsk .

  By the end of the 1990s the socio-economic situation in the city begins to gradually stabilize. The city is actively involved in international cooperation. The Zheleznogorsk International Development Center Foundation is being created, a number of programs are being implemented: the Nuclear Cities Initiative, Twin Cities, and the TIPS student exchange program. In 2000, Zheleznogorsk enters into a cooperation agreement with the cities of Alcoa and Maryville, Blount County, Tennessee, USA.

  The facilities of the Mining and Chemical Combine remain of strategic importance, the development prospects of which today correlate with the creation of new facilities for the temporary storage of spent nuclear fuel (SNF) and the integrated production of semiconductor silicon.

  The Research and Production Association of Applied Mechanics named after Academician M. F. Reshetnev remains the leading enterprise in the country’s rocket and space industry, having created more than a thousand spacecraft in the field of communications, telecommunications, navigation and geodesy over 46 years of activity.

  “Heroic Chronicle”

  Our school is located on the territory of the city of Zheleznogorsk. The history of Zheleznogorsk is closely connected with the development of the nuclear industry in Russia. At the end of the 1940s, the construction of enterprises for the production of nuclear weapons components was carried out at an accelerated pace in the USSR. By decision of the 1st Main Directorate under the Council of People’s Commissars of the USSR, one of the secret plants for the production of weapons-grade plutonium was required to be located near a river or lake, far enough from the state border, in a non-seismic area near a large industrial center and necessarily underground.

  On August 20, 1949, a separate construction battalion consisting of 800 people under the command of Lieutenant Colonel Kurnosy arrived on the bank of the Yenisei near the village of Dodonovo on the ship “Maria Ulyanova”.

  Already in October 1949, the first construction area was formed.

  In May 1950, by order of the USSR Ministry of Internal Affairs, a forced labor camp “Granite” was created. From May to October, the prisoners were building a 51-kilometer railway line along the route “Bazaikha station of the Krasnoyarsk railway – Sotsgorod”.

  The pioneers had a hard time, there was not enough transport, building materials, mechanisms, people lived in dugouts and wooden barracks, but already on August 15, 1950, at the intersection of two future streets of the secret city, the first peg was hammered, which gave rise to the construction of residential areas.

  By 1953 construction had become a global scale. A woodworking plant, brick and concrete plants were put into operation, sand and gravel pits were developed. 234 residential buildings appeared in the city, including 18 stone ones, the Spartak cinema, three schools, three canteens, a kindergarten, and a hospital campus.

  On March 17, 1954, by decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the RSFSR, the work settlement of the plant No. 815 received the official status of the city and the name: Zheleznogorsk – for closed correspondence, party and Soviet bodies, Krasnoyarsk-26 – for open correspondence. By this time, more than 40,000 sq. m of housing, 5 schools for 1760 students, social and cultural facilities and three intra-quarter boiler houses.

  One of the most significant in the history of the young city was 1958 year. On August 19, 1958, just eight years after the start of construction, the first reactor of the Mining and Chemical Combine – AD was launched. On August 28, an act of its readiness was signed, and the mining and chemical complex entered into operation of the country’s existing enterprises. The second reactor for the production of plutonium-239 – ADE-1 was put into operation just three years later, on June 27, 1961.

  At the beginning of 1958, the leadership of the USSR decides on the need for mass production of rockets capable of launching a satellite into orbit and, if necessary, delivering an atomic bomb to any point on the globe. The missiles were developed by specialists from the Special Design Bureau No. 1 under the leadership of S.P. Queen.

  On June 4, 1959, an order was issued by the State Committee for Defense Technology on the formation of a branch of OKB-1 in Krasnoyarsk-26 under the leadership of 34-year-old deputy Korolev M.F. Reshetnev.

  1964 was a special year in the history of the city. In January, the ADE-2 reactor was launched at the MCC, and in August three Kosmos satellites developed by NPO PM were put into orbit. At the same time, specialists from the State Chemical Combine and VNIPIET developed and implemented the world’s first scheme for using heat from the ADE-2 reactor for heat supply and hot water supply to Krasnoyarsk-26. Smoky intra-quarter coal-fired boiler houses were liquidated.

  In the 1980s, the city continued to build and grow. The third and fourth microdistricts were actively built up, architectural and artistic complexes were created – Victory Square with a memorial in memory of the participation of citizens in the Great Patriotic War and a monument to S.P. Queen.

  On July 14, 1992, the Law of the Russian Federation on Closed Administrative-Territorial Formations (ZATO) was issued, which legally established the existence of territories with military-industrial facilities located on them. Krasnoyarsk-26 was also included in the ZATO. January 4 1994 years By the Decree of the Government “On the official name of the settlements of ZATO” Krasnoyarsk-26 was given the name Zheleznogorsk, which was already indicated in the Decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR of 1954.

  In 1999 the city is actively involved in international cooperation. The Fund “International Development Center-Zheleznogorsk” is being created, a number of programs are being implemented: “Nuclear Cities Initiative”, “Sister Cities”, the TIPS student exchange program. In July 2000, Zheleznogorsk enters into a cooperation agreement with the cities of Alcoa and Maryville, Blount County, Tennessee, USA. When planning its future, Zheleznogorsk still connects it with its city-forming enterprises.

  The facilities of the Mining and Chemical Plant remain of strategic importance, the development prospects of which today correlate with the creation of new facilities for the temporary storage of spent nuclear fuel (SNF) and the integrated production of semiconductor silicon.

  The status of the leading enterprise in the rocket and space industry of the country is confirmed by JSC Information Satellite Systems named after Academician M.F. Reshetnev, which over 55 years of activity has created more than 1000 spacecraft in the field of communications, telecommunications, navigation and geodesy.
