Find the Right School for Your Family

Every family deserves a school they can trust close to home, and finding it shouldn't feel like a research project.

Neighborhood Schools with a Strong Foundation

Our schools carry the names their communities already know, and behind each one stands the strength of a larger family: shared safety practices, one approach to learning, and real support for teachers. Local warmth, bigger backing, and you feel both from the first visit.

Getting Started is Simple

From first look to first day, here's the path most families take.

Find Your School

Start with our school finder to see the schools near your home or work, the programs each offers, and the ages they serve. Most families discover there's a school closer than they realized.

Schedule a Tour

Pick a day and come see it for yourself: classrooms in motion, teachers at work, and a director ready for your questions. Bring your child along, their reaction is part of the answer.

Meet Your School's Team

Sit down with your director for the practical details, tuition, availability for your child's age, start dates, while getting to know the people who'd care for your child every day.

Enroll at Your School

When you're ready, your school's team guides you through every form and detail. Enrollment is year-round as space allows. From there, all that's left is picking a first day.

OUR STANDARDS

Licensed, Vetted, & Held to More

Every school in our family is licensed by the state, with real standards for safety, ratios, and daily operations behind that license. Many of our schools go further, holding additional accreditations and taking part in recognized quality programs. Ask your school which apply, or see what stands behind the name on the door.

What You'll Find Inside

The things families ask about most, and where to dig deeper.

"We were looking for a child care center where staff would treat our kids like their own. It has been amazing to see what all our children have learned since starting at Tots Landing. The growth has been incredible."
Megan Gribbins
Tots Landing - Shillito Park
"My daughter has learned so much since being at Tots landing! She is so smart and above average on speech! She LOVES going to school and absolutely adores her teachers, friends, and administrators! Everyday she tells me about Ms. Allison, Ms. Ann, Ms. Shelly, and Ms. Tonya! As well as all her friends by name! I truly feel both me and her are loved by the staff and I know they love my daughter so much! It is actually to the point where we aren’t even at my closest location but I won’t move my daughter because she is so happy and doing so well where she is! Other parents have told me she would adjust and make friends wherever but I can’t move her from her current friends and teachers! I can tell she is so happy and loved! Plus she is learning so much!"

"Our kids absolutely love their daycare, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience they’ve had there. It has been such a phenomenal place for them to learn, grow, and build friendships. They genuinely look forward to going to school each day and get so excited to see their friends and teachers. Their teachers have been incredibly caring, supportive, and nurturing, and it’s clear how much they truly care about the children. Knowing that our kids are happy, loved, learning, and excited to go to school every day means so much to us. We are so grateful to have found such a wonderful place for our children and feel incredibly fortunate to have them be part of such a positive and welcoming community."

Common Questions

Everything You Need to Know

What ages do your schools serve?

Our schools care for children from 6 weeks through school age, infants, toddlers, preschool, pre-K, and before- and after-school care for older siblings. Programs vary by school, so check your nearest school's offerings or ask their director what's available for your child's age.

A real look at a real day: classrooms in action, teachers doing what they do, and time with the director to ask anything. Bring your child if you'd like, watching how they take to the space tells you a lot. There's no pressure attached, just a chance to see if it feels right.

Tuition varies by school, program, and schedule, so your local school is the right source for current rates. They'll also walk you through anything that may lower your cost where offered.

Earlier than most families expect, especially for infant care, where spaces are limited everywhere and expecting parents often tour before their baby arrives. For preschool and pre-K, a few months ahead is typical. That said, families' plans change fast and openings do too, so it's never too late to ask.

Ask to join the waitlist. Classrooms turn over naturally as children grow into their next age group, so spots open throughout the year, and waitlists often move faster than families expect. And since we're a family of schools, there may be a sister school nearby with space now, same approach, same standards, so your child can start there and move over if a spot opens at your first choice. Your director can help you look at both options.
