For over 20 years, we have proudly been a cornerstone of our community, deeply rooted in its values and growth. At our school we prioritize nature and play-based learning, making education an engaging and joyful experience. We incorporate American Sign Language into our daily routines, enhancing communication and connection among our students. Our curriculum is designed to support social-emotional development as a core element, fostering growth in every aspect of the child- social, emotional, spiritual, and academic.
Keizer Rugrats Playschool is a Certified Family Child Care program located in a fully dedicated playschool home in Keizer, Oregon — designed to feel structured like a preschool, warm like home, and playful like childhood. We serve children ages 12 months to 9 years in a small-group setting that allows for strong relationships, consistent routines, and individualized support. Our program blends a structured daily rhythm with hands-on, play-based learning to build confidence, independence, and school readiness. Our curriculum aligns with Oregon early learning standards and includes art, sensory play, early math and literacy, and daily movement both indoors and outdoors. Meals and snacks are provided through the USDA food program, and children participate in a calm, predictable environment that supports both learning and emotional development. Unlike traditional in-home daycare, this is a dedicated childcare space — no one lives in the home — allowing for a clean, organized, and purpose-built learning environment. Program Highlights: • Certified Family Child Care • CDA-qualified provider • Small group, mixed-age learning • Structured daily routine • Play-based, hands-on curriculum • USDA meals and snacks included • Spot-based enrollment (your child’s space is reserved each month) Hours: Monday–Friday, 6:00 AM – 5:30 PM If you’re looking for a calm, structured alternative to large centers, we’d love to connect and schedule a tour.
