Child’s Play is unique in that it bridges the span between home-based and center-based care. Child’s Play focuses on providing some of the best services available at each.

• The school has its own entry, kitchenette, restroom, and cubbies. The school has the comfort of being home-based, but includes the professionalism of a contained and furnished daycare room separate from the private living areas.

• In an attempt to provide the most stable environment possible, the school employs a substitute teacher. Families have the best of both worlds with the intimate setting and consistency of home-based care AND the backup care larger centers are able to provide with substitute teachers. The substitute teaches on a regular weekly basis and is available during additional hours, covering Ms. B’s time off.

• Child’s Play is staffed with highly educated teachers. We find ourselves teaching young children as the fulfillment of our desired long-term professional goals. Each of us have well over 15 years experience of working with children.

• Child’s Play, while home-based, is furnished with materials from teaching catalogs. We offer school-based programs such as Scholastics and school-stimulated assessments, and community-based reading incentive programs including Pizza Hut and Barnes & Noble. We also organize in-house educational fieldtrips that include the Kansas City Zoo, Mad Scientist of KC, visits from our local police and firemen, and much more.
