Our mission is to support families by providing quality childcare and early childhood programs for Infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and kindergartners.
 

Why Choose Adventure Center?
 
The task of choosing the best center for your child can be an overwhelming one. Some options would not even be considered as acceptable.  But how do you decide among several seemingly good choices?

One unique feature that we can offer your child at Adventure Center is a consistent and well-trained teaching staff. Adventure Center has been in existence since 1989, however, the director, and some of the staff (who are still with us) moved from a smaller center that had been in operation for 15 years.  Our full time staff average 17+ years of experience with us.  In the early childhood/child care profession that is quite unique.  We are fortunate to have such a high caliber and experienced teaching staff.

Additionally, all of our staff attend annual training sessions and conferences.  All full and part time staff receive CPR, First Aid, and Bloodborne Pathogen training that is updated regularly.
