AFFORDABLE TUITION
At JumpStart Child Development Center. We are committed to providing quality childcare at rates families can truly afford. Not only do we offer low and competitive tuition, but we also ensure every child has the opportunity to learn, grow, and thrive in a safe, nurturing, and creative environment—without placing a heavy financial burden on parents.
CREATIVE CURRICULUM
We integrate both the Creative Curriculum and Frog Street Curriculum to provide a well-rounded, research-based learning experience. These programs are designed to challenge and engage children while nurturing their curiosity, creativity, and developmental needs. By combining structured learning with opportunities for exploration, we support each child’s growth, evolving interests, and readiness for future academic success.

Our state-licensed program provides care for children ages 2, 3, and 4, offering a safe and nurturing environment during these important early years. We provide age-appropriate preschool and pre-K programs that focus on learning through play, social development, and school readiness—complete with healthy meals to keep children energized and ready to learn.

"Our kids come home happy at the end of the day, and the environment of positive reinforcement at JumpStart has done wonders for their interpersonal and social skills. Whenever we have had questions or concerns, we have felt listened to and respected, and it's obvious how much our children trust the care providers."
