School Notes
- Welcome to the South Elgin KinderCare. As you begin the journey of finding a quality early childhood program, we would like to extend a hand to you in helping your family make the best choice. As a NAEYC (National Association for the Education of Young Children) accredited center, we strive to meet the highest standard in early care and education. We employ and support teachers who have the educational qualifications, knowledge and professional commitment necessary to promote children’s learning and development. They do so through implementation of a curriculum that fosters all areas: cognitive, emotional, language, physical and social development. It is our top priority to establish relationships and use the resources of our community and our families so that we can achieve the goals we have in mind for our children. You and your child or children are welcome to come meet our teachers, and explore the classroom and the curriculum for yourselves. We look forward to your visit!

From daily sign-in to strict parent / guardian identification and single keypad access, we maintain a rigorous standard for safety. Plus our daily cleanliness and maintenance schedules leave nothing at all to chance. In addition to being first aid and CPR certified, our staff receives ongoing training and development throughout the year.
