About

Welcome to Childcare Network in Greensboro, where we pride ourselves on being a high-quality early learning center. My name is Donnishia Casterlow and I am the school Director. At our school, we strive to ensure that parents feel safe and secure leaving their children with us and that those children leave every day with a smile on their faces. We know that early education plays an integral role in establishing a solid foundation for their child's educational journey.

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, but also how demanding the role of a parent can be at times, especially 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. All of our staff members are dedicated to providing a safe environment and assisting your child on their learning journey while giving them the freedom to explore and develop in a warm and caring environment.

Please feel free to stop in for a tour or call to speak with a member of our team. We look forward to the opportunity to build a long-lasting relationship with your family!

Childcare Network gets my highest marks and absolute praise in Pre-K schooling. They are a well organized and caring group of people. My child looked forward to attending class everyday of the week. The building is clean and kept tidy. The staff is amazing and I give my highest compliments to their caring, attention to details, and their teaching abilities. They were always aware and conscious of class size and kept a good student to teacher ratio. Simply, childcare and teaching at its best!

I’ll make this short. We’ve been customers since my oldest was 6 months old (2019). My youngest will wrap up NC PreK in June 2026. As common with this industry, there’s been frequent changes in staffing (which the pandemic did not help), but all the way through leadership has been fairly consistent. This has helped in that the level of effort is there, even if the resources aren’t. The current staff is great and the vibe is friendly and welcoming. Couple that with a great location (down the road from downtown, around the corner from UNCG) and a fairly affordable price (for the industry) and it’s hard to recommend another center.
