Description: EduKids Early Childhood Centers have been the leaders and innovators in childcare and kindergarten readiness programming in Western New York since 1989. We opened our first early childhood center in Orchard Park, New York in September of that year after founder Nancy Ware searched extensively for a high quality, educationally focused child care program for her own son. Disappointed at the poor quality and limited programs available to families in WNY, Mrs. Ware envisioned opening an outstanding facility with an experienced and loving staff; a place where families would truly feel they were bringing their children to a home away from home. Today, her original vision and mission remain at the heart and soul of every EduKids Center. The finest facility, the very best staff! EduKids partners with our families to provide: a safe, loving and high interest environment, activities and curriculums that are developmentally appropriate and the skills and confidence to become an eager, lifetime learner! Educators from all over Western New York tell us again and again how well prepared EduKids children are for the school experience!
Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.
