EduKids is synonymous with excellence. We understand that children follow fairly predictable stages of growth, socialization and intellectual development. However, we feel strongly that every child must be recognized as an individual, free to shape his or her own patterns, adjust to his or her own environment, choose his or her own interests and grow at his or her own pace. EduKids allows room and opportunity for growth, friendship, fun and family for all children. Our Vision has remained steadfast for over 26 years: EduKids will be synonymous with excellence among early childhood programs and be recognized as the benchmark of quality staff, programs and facilities in the industry.
