The Kinder Garden is an Early Learning/Child Care Center with locations on Kent Island in Stevensville, Maryland and Easton, MD. The Kinder Garden has the newest, most modern state of the art buildings & playgrounds, designed specifically for childcare. We also offer the best weekly rates in the area. The environments are designed to provide the safest place for your children. With this in mind, we offer at both sites, an electronic parent access system. We provide excellent care for infants to children 5 years of age, and take great pride in our staff(s). A full day pre-school program is provided with full-time and part-time options. Openings are currently available in all age groups.
The vision of the owners, Dennis and Jan Duley of Royal Oak, Maryland, is to provide the highest quality staff and facility to service young children and their families on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. To this end, they have invested their construction and artistic talents, business expertise, and commitment to children, families, and the community.
