Hello and welcome to my website. My name is Karen Frank. I am a professional family child care provider for 26+ years . I love spending my day with young children and watching them grow and learn.  We strive to combine the very best of both worlds by providing a loving family environment while stimulating their growth and development. Our home has an infant/toddler area and a preschool room with learning centers.  Activities are planned to stimulate physical, emotional, social, and cognitive growth so your child can reach their full potential and be ready for their next step in life. 

 

My daughter, Mykenna; who is a Texas board certified EC-8th grade teacher, subs for me on when needed We look forward to serving your family's needs and providing a loving environment in which your child can learn and grow. Your child will learn something new every day - some days they will bring it home in their heads, some days their hands and other days in their hearts.
