Why us
Why Families Choose Mary Margaret’s Day Care and Learning Center
At Mary Margaret’s Day Care and Learning Center, we provide a safe, nurturing environment where children can learn, grow, and build confidence at every stage of development. Our programs are designed to support the whole child through meaningful care, structured learning, and daily opportunities for play and discovery.
Nurturing Care
We create a warm, supportive environment where children feel safe, cared for, and encouraged to grow with confidence.
Creative Learning
Children learn through hands-on activities, exploration, movement, and play that build curiosity and a love of learning.
Whole-Child Development
Our approach supports social, emotional, physical, and intellectual development through age-appropriate learning and play.
Structured Growth
From infant care through before and after school programs, Mary Margaret’s Day Care and Learning Center provides consistent routines and learning experiences that support each stage.
Programs
Age-specific support for every stage
Tender, responsive care for your baby’s earliest stage of growth. Our infant program supports trust, comfort, and early development through a safe, nurturing environment with sensory play, movement, and guided interaction.
As toddlers become more independent, we help them build communication, social skills, and confidence through guided play, hands-on exploration, and daily routines designed for growth.
Our Preschool and Pre-K programs encourage early learning through play-based lessons that support language, motor, social, and cognitive development while helping children prepare for kindergarten.
It matches the handbook more closely by reinforcing Mary Margaret’s actual philosophy: safe, nurturing, play-based learning that supports whole-child development. It also keeps the homepage scannable, which is more important than trying to fit too much detail into those 4 cards.

Testimonials
Absolutely love all the ladies at Mary Margaret’s! I usually spend no less than 10 minutes in there when picking up my baby because they’re all so friendly and fun to talk to! From my experience in the infant room since February the teachers have been very attentive and involved with the babies! They always let me know what he did and how his day was. Seriously the best place you can bring your kiddos!!!! My niece also goes there and has so much fun growing and learning with all the activities they do!

I would highly recommend this daycare. My daughter absolutely loves coming to “school” every day, smiles, laughs, and runs in every morning to hugs. Tiffany and Miranda are excellent teachers and truly care about the kids. Nikki and Marlene are wonderful, as well, and so great. I was a daycare kid growing up and so I’ve been around the very best. My daughter is so happy and loves the learning and play. Like I said, I would certainly recommend this Mary Margaret’s.

My two kids have been going here since September 1, 2015. This was the first daycare they have ever been to in their lives. My parents have always babysat them. I was so nervous. So scared. I wanted to make sure my kids were well taken care of and were loved just like they were their own. Mary Margaret has went above and beyond what I ever could have expected out of a daycare!! Cindy, Jen, Shelly, Cathy, Kristin, Morgan and all the other workers have been sooo good to my kids!! They always keep me informed and are so loving and attentive. I don’t think I’ll ever find a daycare that could EVER compare to Mary Margaret’s! Elena, Dominik and I love you all sooo much!!!
