Total- care was born in 1983 from the necessity to provide high quality child care in a safe and healthy environment, while meeting the developmental needs of each child entrusted to our care.
Our first location began in Irondequoit; and by the end of our first year, our enrollment increased to 85 area children.
Soon after, it became necessary to open our second location, serving an additional 80 area children.
We have expanded over the years providing care for many children in need of the high quality care we provide.
We constantly research and refine our program to adjust to the needs of the children in our care.
Our mission is to provide the best quality child care emphasizing early childhood education in a nurturing, safe and clean environment while promoting the physical, mental, social and emotional well-being of your child.
