Our Journey With Families

From one center to eight locations, our mission has stayed the same: provide nurturing care, meaningful learning, and dependable support for working families.

Our First Center Opens

All Around Children began as a family-owned center built on our mission to provide exceptional early childhood education through quality, accessibility, and equity.

2011

Growing With Families

As word spread, we expanded to serve more neighborhoods while preserving warm classrooms, close communication, and relationship-first care.

2015

Building Stronger School Readiness

We strengthened our curriculum across infant, toddler, preschool, and pre-k programs to support confident transitions into kindergarten.

2020

Family Communication, Reimagined

We introduced more consistent parent communication tools so families could stay connected to each meal, milestone, and meaningful moment.

Today

We proudly support families across Northeast Ohio through our dedicated leadership teams and educators, all committed to living out our core values every day. As we grow, our vision remains the same—To create a future where every family has access to exceptional education, empowering a generation of children from all backgrounds to thrive.
