At Play care Academy we believe in letting children learn through play whether it be outside or our free play and child lead center play.

We believe that books have the power to transform lives.
Through reading with your child, we strive to foster a love for reading, promote lifelong learning, and build connections among children and parents.
Reading here at Playcare happens with every child every day we encourage you to read with your child at home and have a book borrowing program for those parents interested in checking out books to read at home.

My grandson has been going here since March 2022. He loves going there. The staff is friendly and good with the children. I love the app that is used because you know what is going on throughout the day. I would recommend this daycare to anyone needing childcare.
