Why Families Choose Kids Castle
A Place to Feel Safe, Known & Ready to Grow
Choosing child care is about more than finding an open spot. Families need a place they can trust—where children are cared for warmly, learning is part of every day, communication stays open and routines help children feel secure.
Learning • Play • Friendship
What Families Can Expect
Thoughtful Care Throughout the Entire Day
From drop-off through pick-up, the small details shape a child’s experience. Our goal is to make those details dependable, nurturing and developmentally appropriate.
Secure Environment
Controlled building access and a locked entry help create a safer environment for children, families and staff throughout the day.
Warm, Caring Relationships
Children learn best when they feel comfortable and connected. Teachers work to know each child, respond to individual needs and create a welcoming classroom community.
Parent Communication
Procare helps families stay connected with updates about activities, learning, meals and other important parts of the day.
Nutritious Meals & Snacks
Kids Castle participates in CACFP and provides nutritious, balanced breakfast, lunch and snacks that follow CACFP meal-pattern guidelines.
Learning With Purpose
Children learn through play, stories, art, movement, circle time and hands-on discovery. Toddlers through Pre-K also benefit from Experience Early Learning curriculum activities.
Balanced, Active Days
Daily routines include teacher-guided learning, child-directed play, quieter moments, movement and outdoor activity when weather permits.
A Partner for Parents
Care Works Best When Families and Teachers Work Together
Parents know their children best. We value the information families share about routines, preferences, milestones and changes at home because it helps teachers provide more consistent care during the day.
That partnership continues after enrollment. Questions are welcome, developmental transitions are discussed together, and Procare gives families another way to stay connected to what is happening in the classroom.
- Procare updates about the day
- A team that welcomes parent questions and communication
- Support during developmental transitions and new routines
- A welcoming environment where families can stay involved
Established in Fort Wayne
Serving Local Families Since 1995
Kids Castle has cared for Fort Wayne children for more than three decades. Families change, classrooms grow and early-learning practices continue to evolve, but the responsibility remains the same: provide dependable care, treat children with warmth and respect, and give parents confidence in where their child spends the day.
That long-standing presence is part of who we are—not a substitute for earning a family’s trust, but a reminder that trust must be earned day after day.

The Kids Castle Difference
Children Need Both Nurturing Care and Meaningful Learning
We do not believe families should have to choose between a warm, caring environment and a day filled with opportunities to learn. Kids Castle brings the two together. Children have room to play, create, move, make friends and build independence while teachers guide age-appropriate language, early academic, social-emotional and problem-solving skills.
The People Behind the Day
Why Our Teachers Matter
Parents Are Trusting Us With More Than a Schedule
Our teachers help children through everyday moments—arrival, play, meals, friendships, big feelings, new skills and transitions. Required background checks, ongoing education and safety training support the caring relationships families depend on.
