Flexible programs that support school-age children with homework help, structured activities, and time for relaxation in a safe setting.

Supporting Families with Safe, Enriching Care Beyond the School Day

At our center, we offer a dedicated before and after school care program designed to support school-age children and their families. Our program provides a safe, nurturing environment where children can relax, socialize, and engage in enriching activities outside of school hours. We also extend our care during school breaks, including summer vacation, ensuring consistent support year-round.

Key Features and Offerings:

  • Safe and Supervised Environment: Our before and after school care program prioritizes safety with secure facilities and attentive staff. Children are monitored at all times, ensuring a worry-free experience for parents as they drop off and pick up their children.

  • Collaboration with Local Schools: We work alongside Hudsonville Public Schools and Hudsonville Christian Schools to provide convenient bussing for children before and after school. This partnership ensures a seamless transition for students and gives parents peace of mind.

  • Flexible Scheduling: We understand that families have varied schedules. Our program offers flexible hours to accommodate early drop-offs and late pick-ups, making it easier for parents to manage their work and family commitments.

  • Engaging Activities: We provide a variety of structured and unstructured activities designed to keep children engaged and active. From arts and crafts to outdoor play, STEM projects, and group games, our program encourages creativity, teamwork, and skill development.

  • Homework Support: Our staff is available to assist children with their homework and school projects, providing guidance and encouragement. We create a quiet and focused environment to help children complete their assignments and reinforce their learning.

  • Socialization Opportunities: Before and after school care offers children the chance to build friendships and socialize with peers. Our program promotes positive interactions and helps develop important social skills as children learn to communicate, cooperate, and resolve conflicts.

  • Routine Communication with Parents: We believe in maintaining open communication with families. Caregivers provide regular updates on children’s activities and any important information regarding their day. We encourage parents to share any specific needs or concerns.
