Welcome to Inspire Kids Center!

 

Inspire Kids Center (IKC) is opening a Preschool (3 days a week, 9:30am-12:30pm) on January 3, 2024!  We currently provide before and after school care for school age children.   
IKC seeks to build relationships with children, parents, and schools. It desires to be a safe place where children will establish friendships, learn valuable life skills, and seek out new adventures.  IKC welcomes 2.5 - 5-year-olds for the Preschool program (must be potty trained) and school age children from Kindergarten through 5th grade for Before & After School Care.  Transportation is provided for Henderson and Fannie Fitzgerald Elementary Schools.

Welcome!

Our Facility:

The entire lower level of our 21,630 square foot facility caters to the needs of children and offers an abundance of amenities for kids of all ages. Our enrollment capacity is 75 students. We have a 3000+ square foot indoor gym for exercise and many other rooms that are specifically designed and dedicated to inspire creativity, stimulate the mind, encourage fun and foster teamwork.  The BLAST Room offers building manipulatives like Lego and K'nex, an Art center for making master art creations, and a well-equipped STEM station for exploration.  The Hang Out Room provides a place to play a board game with friends, work on a puzzle, do homework, watch a video or just hang out. The Hive is a quiet space to get away and escape into the world of books. In the game room, kids can play Foosball, Ping Pong, and arcade style basketball. We also have a computer lab equipped with high-speed Internet access and training tools to assist our students in learning computer skills or working on homework projects.  We encourage you to tour our facility to see the many possibilities available at the Center.
