HELLO, NEIGHBOR
Small center.
Lots of heart.
Children grow through connection, play, and the freedom to be themselves.
Since 1989, Lake Stevens Daycare & Preschool Center has offered a warm, home-like setting for local families. Our approach is influenced by Deborah MacNamara’s Rest, Play, Grow: valuing caring relationships, emotional safety, meaningful play, and development at each child’s pace.
