Greater Expectations LEARNING CENTER
We strive to provide a safe, nurturing environment where children will be educated through cognitive learning, artistic expression and imaginative play. Our focus is to provide the necessary tools to promote self- confidence, self-awareness and foster a love of learning.
Providing a safe, warm, friendly and developmentally-appropriate environment for children ages 6 weeks to 12 years of age is an expected standard for Greater Expectations Learning Center. If this is a personal requirement that meets your family's needs, enrolling and/or reserving a future space for your child is simple. Contact us to schedule a time for you and your child to visit us in our home at (513) 448-0882 or check out our website and we will be happy to answer any questions you may have.
