The After School Program for School Age Child Care from 3:00-6:00

The After School Program was established in 1992 as a partnership with the Springdale School District to provide a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for school-age children. We provide after-school care from the time school is dismissed until 6:00 pm, Monday through Friday, and are conveniently located in every elementary school, except Jones and Parson Hills Elementary. We have also expanded our program to include Hellstern Middle School.

Tuition consists of a $50 per child registration fee. $65 per week for one child, $125 per week for two children, and $150 per week for three children. Children may attend on a drop-in basis at a rate of $25 per day/per child. If families choose to have their tuition automatically drafted, a $2.50 per week discount will be applied to full-time enrollment.

The After School Program offers an exciting summer program and provides all daycare for most holiday breaks. Every member of our staff is privately background checked, and CPR/First Aid certified. We are licensed by the Arkansas Department of Human Services, Better Beginnings level 2, accept the child care voucher program, the essential workers funding, and the Ottawa Tribe childcare funding. The After School Program is a member of the Better Business Bureau, the Springdale Chamber of Commerce, and are proud sponsors of numerous local charities and events.
