Finding flexible, quality gap care is a challenge.

We all know that taking a break from formal schooling is good for a child's well-being. At the same time, many families are still looking for care during these gaps in the school year to provide their children with enrichment and educational experiences. This can cause frustration trying to find a quality, affordable option that also engages their children off screens, with time outdoors, and in meaningful activities and play with peers.

Camps that give you peace of mind

SAFE + SMALL SETTING

STEM-THEMED

SHORTER DAYS + PART-TIME SUMMER CAMPS

Trained, experienced staff will always be leading and providing care in a small setting with low camper-teacher ratio.

Each camp will offer a variety of art and play-based activities to enrich your child's learning.

Your child will love our engaging experiments and design challenges that build problem-solving and collaborative skills.
