"Thank you for all you’ve done to create a safe, loving, nurturing learning environment for my children and all their friends at Rising Stars. We truly appreciate it and appreciate all the work, love, fun and creativity you and all the teachers put into the classroom programs. I really can’t express how fortunate we feel to have had such loving care for our children while we are at work. Thank you." - Jesse G

Our Amazing Staff


All of our caring staff are fully CPR & First Aid certified and most have continuing education in the childhood development field. We have experienced very low turnover in an otherwise high turnover career. Many of our staff have been with us since 2007.

Our highly trained teachers strive to create a warm and welcoming environment every day and take pride in their creativity while adhering to a curriculum that’s based on weekly thematic units.
