before & after school care

We offer a before and after school care program, which allows for children to receive our care during a normal school day, early outs, no school days, and snow days. Children also receive school bus transportation to and from their school.

summer care

We offer a summer program for school aged kids. This program encompasses a variety of themes, activities, and outings. Children have the opportunity to regularly attend the swimming pool, library, and park during the week. They also engage in summer recreation through Orange City Parks and Recreation, and outdoor education through planting and maintaining a summer care garden. The summer care program has many stimulating activities to offer your school-aged children. They will love the summer care program and will benefit socially, physically, and educationally.

“As summer school aged teacher at Orange City Daycare and Preschool, I carefully plan each day’s activities to provide a balance of physical outdoor activity with fun, but purposeful learning center activities. Children are engaged in writing, drawing and reading activities daily to minimize the ‘summer learning loss.’ Children are actively involved in planning, planting, maintaining, and harvesting a summer vegetable garden as well as performing a child sized circus and learning puppetry skills with Lisa Laird of Pockets Full of Fun. Children ages five through 12 are welcome to join the summer fun.”
–Leora Olson, lead teacher

“Selecting Orange City Daycare and Preschool was the right choice for our son. The care providers are passionate about providing a program that is fun and educational.  Our son enjoys all of the fun activities, crafts, and games.”
