We prepare and serve a nutritious breakfast, lunch and dinner (for children whose parents need extended day care) at daycare. No time for breakfast at home? No problem! Your child can have his morning meal with his friends. You don't have to plan, prepare and pack a lunch for your preschool child, either. We make it easy for parents with busy schedules.

Friendly staff with your babies. You get your own passcode to enter into the building so not just anyone can come onto the property and around your children without someone knowing it. So if you need that sense of safety for your babies it's definitely there. They get very involved with having picture days, festive events, movie days, family events, etc. Also if you have any school age children in Keystone, McRae or Melrose no older then 12 years of age if you drop them off in the morning by a certain time they will be taken to and from the school if you need that with no additional charge. We love it here, have been here for 3 years now and counting.

Before my grandson even began his preschool education, this wonderful school invited his family to attend a really nice Labor Day celebration that included fun on the playground and a tour of the facilities! We met all the teachers and many of the families. My grandson got to play with kids who would become his new school friends, and it was a nice time! The rooms of the school are set up perfectly for each age group with age appropriate play/learn stations in addition to nice decorative themes. Every teacher and assistant who works with my grandson and his school mates truly understand child development and engagement. My grandson comes home singing songs and counting and reciting the alphabet, all things they practice in circle time and music time sand art time. I cannot say enough how thankful to God his mama and daddy are for this special school that is truly building the confidence and social skills of the children. The very best review we all get from my grandson is every single day as he is leaving he hollers out to his teachers and his school director, “I looovvvee you!!” He comes home well fed, well engaged with fun and learning, and well rested and relaxed! This school is the very best and such a gem in our little town.

This is the best daycare ever. My child was previously was at another place in town for only 4 days and it was a disaster. They treat your child like their own my child is happy to go to school everyday. They have family events, picture day, arts and crafts, music and so much learning. My child has learned so much here we love it here. The teachers and staff are great. My son loves them and the director is amazing too!! Thank you so much !

My son has been enrolled for the last 5 months and I cannot say enough good things about the quality of care. Every afternoon when I pick him up he has a smile on his face and the teachers tell me all the fun things or new skills he’s working to develop. Thank y’all for helping to nurture his talents.

Hello! I was just made aware of a google review that was placed under my name for the school kids hangout keystone heights location. I have fixed it to 5 stars. My 6 year old son did that! I have used them for years and I can't express how greatful I am for the staff and management there. Cheyanne and Dawne has helped my kids grow and learn so much from VPK to learning sports. I trust them with the kids wholeheartedly and the teachers have been wonderful every step of the way. I'm so sorry for any confusion caused by the previous review but I have nothing but praise for this establishment.
