Why choose STARS Kid care?
Play Based Programming
Children are naturally inclined to play. Our play based programming builds off of that, using play as a tool for learning. By doing this, children can explore, experiment, discover and solve problems in imaginative and playful ways.
Service to the Community
We practice service to our school's community
at all STARS programs. Service can help instill kindness, responsibility, skill as well as help them realize that even one person can really make a difference!
A safe space for kids to grow
Your child is nurtured before and after school right on THEIR OWN school campus without changing locations -- a safe place to play, learn, and build friendships.
WE accept CCAP!
Our CCAP specialist helps parents navigate the Colorado Child Care Assistance Program (CCCAP) that can help cover a substantial portion of child care costs for families who qualify.
Commitment to happy & qualified staff
We take an interest in the well being and success of all STARS staff. We make sure every Program Director/Leader have the support and tools to be as happy and qualified as possible in their position.
Easy check in and out
Our process uses quick sign-in and sign-out PIN technology on each program's tablet. You can notify us via text or email if you need to add your child in at the last minute. We know parents and families are busy. No hassle is our goal for parents and families.
