We strive for the most nurturing, loving and educational environment for your children. Our goal is to teach children valuable real life social skills and prepare them for school. We do many activities outside of the childcare center including field trips to places like; Como Zoo, movie theatre, bowling, underwater world, pickle factory, library and a variety of other exciting and engaging places.

We also have fun activities at the center aside from our regular curriculum like Petting Zoo, Magicians and other entertaining events.

We have age appropriate curriculum for the children developed by each of the Head Teachers in the rooms. Reading and art projects are a few of the activities in the infant room and the toddlers enjoy circle time to learn numbers, ABC's, colors, songs and reading. The preschool room works on similar activities including weather, American Sign Language (ASL) and computer time. Our Pandas work on Kindergarten readiness skills as well as ASL, Spanish and other real world skills.

As you can see, Next Best Thing To Mom is truly more than just a childcare center. It is a place for learning, growing and having fun. We hope you will stop in, meet the staff and say ( hello ) to everyone.
