Child Care

Providing Child Day Care Services in Milwaukee since 1999

St. Ann Center’s licensed and award-winning childcare programs keep your child safe, happy, and excited about learning, with a bonus: friendships with adults in our day program as they interact over fun and educational activities. Research shows intergenerational care can give children a developmental advantage of 10-12 months, both in learning skills and in emotional intelligence, over their peers from traditional daycares.

Children’s Programs Offered, by Age:

St. Ann Center’s experienced and caring staff provides the support and security children need at every step of their development. For infants and toddlers, newly aware of themselves and others, that’s the security and a sense that their world is a caring place. For preschoolers, it’s loving and guidance as they start to establish friendships and prepare for academic learning. Schoolchildren, working hard in class, need time to exercise and support for academic learning, and challenging activities. Young adolescents, looking to the future, get the mentoring to ground them in skills needed to seek a first job or a scholarship.

Infants (4 weeks to 1 year) and One-Year-Olds

St. Ann Center understands what a gift babies are! When your family is ready to take the step into childcare, you can feel good knowing that St. Ann Center’s teachers are here to help your baby feel loved and secure while exploring and learning about themselves and the world around them.

Two, Three and Four Year-Olds

Your child is ready to begin growing to their greatest potential through social, academic, physical, and creative activities, from swimming to the ABCs. Our curriculum celebrates each child’s uniqueness and incorporates regular intergenerational activity time with the adults in our care — music, stories, art projects, simple games, and more.

School Age (5-12)

Before and After School Care

Available during the school year, with breakfast available before 8 a.m., and transportation to or from schools (Stein Campus). After-school care includes a nutritious snack and homework assistance, as well as regular swim time in our warm-water pool.

Keep your school-age children safe, happy, and learning about everything from art to music to cooking to gardening all summer, with regular playtime indoors and out, swim time, new friends of all ages, and weekly field trips to fun and educational sites.

Buddy Program (Ages 11-14)

This service learning and mentoring program strengthens intergenerational relations and increases respect for diversity by connecting youth with seniors and adults with disabilities through a variety of activities. Youth will practice skills needed to obtain and keep a job, enhance self-esteem, learn to budget money, build decision-making skills, develop social skills, and more.
