About
Welcome to our childcare center and preschool in Clayton, NC! It is our pleasure to welcome you and your child into our fun learning environment. My name is Natashia Edwards, and I am the Center Director! I have been working with children for the past 18 years, and I love making a difference in the lives of children and their families. Our goal for students is to foster an environment where each child can challenge themselves and achieve success. As many of our staff are parents themselves, we understand how rewarding and demanding a parent's role can sometimes be, especially as a working parent. We are committed to providing a supportive community for the families we serve. We all want our students to be happy, nurtured, and provided with the best learning opportunities. Our staff members provide a safe environment and nurture your child on their learning journey while giving them the freedom to explore and develop in a warm and caring environment. Feel free to stop in for a tour or call to speak with a team member. We look forward to the opportunity to build a long-lasting relationship with your family!
