Discover why families choose our East Greeley child care programs for safety, enrichment, and support.
Choosing the right after-school care for your child is a big decision. At ABC East Child Development Center in Greeley, our program is more than just supervision; it’s a thoughtfully designed extension of your child’s learning day. In this post, we’ll explore what sets our after-school care apart, from our engaging curriculum and dedicated staff to our strong commitment to safety and child development.
A Program Built Around Your Child’s Growth
At ABC East, after-school care means more than keeping children busy until pickup. Our team designs activities that support social-emotional learning, school readiness, and creativity, all in a safe, supportive environment.
Developmentally Appropriate Curriculum
Our after-school program is guided by research-backed practices aligned with standards from trusted organizations like NAEYC (National Association for the Education of Young Children). Activities are designed for school-age children and focus on:
- STEM learning through hands-on experiments and exploration
- Creative expression through music, art, and movement
- Homework support to reinforce classroom skills
- Team building with games that foster collaboration and self-confidence
We intentionally balance structured learning with free play, giving children a chance to recharge and have fun while continuing to grow.
Highly Trained, Caring Staff
What truly makes our East Greeley child care programs special is our people. Our after-school educators are:
- Professionally trained in early childhood and school-age development
- CPR/First Aid certified and background checked
- Skilled at fostering connection, communication, and problem-solving
Many of our staff have worked in early education for years and understand the unique needs of children as they transition from the school day to an after-school setting. We prioritize nurturing relationships so every child feels seen, heard, and safe.
Safety and Structure Parents Can Count On
We know safety is a top concern for families, and it’s our top priority, too. ABC East offers:
- Secure building access and monitored check-in/check-out procedures
- Well-defined routines that help children feel comfortable and know what to expect
- Low teacher-to-child ratios for personalized attention
- Healthy snacks and time for outdoor play, weather permitting
Our facility is maintained to the highest standards, and parents receive consistent communication about their child’s day and progress.
Real Enrichment, Real Support
Unlike generic after-school programs that prioritize screen time or downtime, ABC East focuses on:
- Building executive function skills, like time management and emotional regulation
- Encouraging curiosity and inquiry
- Promoting kindness, cooperation, and responsibility
We also align with the Greeley-Evans District 6 school calendar and support working families with flexible scheduling options.
