Age groups
Infancy is the most critical time in a kiddos life. At Blessings, we provide a loving and nurturing environment where your little one feels safe and comfortable. In this age group, we focus on individualized care to meet your child's needs and we aim to help them meet milestones following our ages and stages standards.
Infants
6 weeks - 18 months-old
Toddlers
18 months - 4 years-old
In this age group, we focus on each child’s educational, emotional, and physical development. While we are a play-based center, our mornings include structured circle time and small-group learning experiences. These activities are especially beneficial at this stage, as they help prepare children for a smooth transition into their preschool years.
Preschoolers
4 - 5 years-old; Currently attending preschool
In this age group, we focus on getting children ready with all the skills necessary for success in kindergarten. From identifying their names, spelling, tracing letters and numbers, to learning how to cut, following instructions, our main focus is every kid's successful learning experience. We partner with several local preschools, providing transportation and before and after school care. Reach out to us with more information.
School-Aged
Kindergarten - 6th grade
We provide before and after school care for grades K-5, including transportation to several different schools in the Waukee and West Des Moines School District as well as Saint Francis of Assisi School. We offer a great summer camp full of activities and field trips.
