Summer photo dump from our ELC crew! ☀️

We've been keeping busy around here! Tie dye, painting, slime, shaving cream, water play, and lots of time outside plus so much more.

While summer gives us lots of excuses to get extra creative, this kind of hands-on fun is something we love doing all year long. Our curriculum is filled with opportunities for the kids to create, explore, move, and learn in ways that actually feel like fun.

Looking for a career where you can make an impact every day? Join our Early Learning Center team! 💙

Our ELC teachers do so much more than help children learn — they build relationships, create meaningful experiences, and help children grow during some of their most important years.

When we asked our lead teachers what they love about working at ELC, they shared:

"The number one reason I’ve loved working at ELC is the kids. They’re all truly amazing in their own way. I’ve never laughed so hard and felt so appreciated than by our kiddos at ELC. Our staff are also beyond inviting, kind, and everyone is so supportive. I’ve loved all 3 years I’ve worked at ELC and can’t imagine anywhere else I’d rather work."

"I love working in the ELC because I get to help kids learn and grow through hands-on interactions and play! The classroom is fun and full of energy, which makes every day exciting!"

That is what makes our ELC special, teachers who are passionate about creating a fun, supportive, and engaging environment where children feel loved, encouraged, and ready to learn.

If you love working with young children, enjoy being creative, and want to be part of a supportive team, we would love to have you join our Early Learning Center family!

One of our favorite parts of the week? Swim lesson day! 🏊💙

At our Early Learning Center, families have the option to add swim lessons to their child's day. It's a fun way for little ones to build confidence in the water, learn important water safety skills, and celebrate new milestones with every lesson.

The best part? Swim lessons are an optional add-on, so children who participate still enjoy our regularly scheduled free swim days with their classmates, too!

There's nothing better than watching a child go from a little unsure to proudly showing off a new skill. Those smiles say it all. 💛

Interested in learning more about our Early Learning Center or adding swim lessons to your child's experience? We'd love to answer your questions! Call the Welcome Desk or reach out to learn more.

It's been hot, so you know what that means... Water Day! 💦☀️

Our Early Learning Center friends had the best time cooling off with lots of splashing, laughing, and soaking up the sunshine together. These are the days summer is made for.

We're making the most of every sunny day and loving every minute of it!
