School-Age Aftercare | TK - 1st Grade | Serving South San Francisco, CA

Whole-Child Care That Helps Your Child Unwind

In a warm home-from-home, your school-age kiddo can relax, grow, and thrive after classes each day. Our after-school curriculum blends structured enrichment with relaxed, child-led exploration to support learning, build independence, and foster emotional regulation.

Personalized Attention & Homework Help From Experienced Teachers

Our licensed, background-checked, and CPR-certified teachers have experience with elementary-aged children. With a typical ratio of 1 teacher to 10 students, they make meaningful connections with each student, helping on homework and assignments with attention and care.

Creative Group Activities Include Art & STEM

Your child engages in a mix of group projects and solo activities. They can express themselves in the creative arts corner, stocked with open-ended supplies, conduct experiments at the STEM station, or make a masterpiece at the building center.

A Focus On Social-Emotional Skills For Empathy & Confidence

Nurturing teachers model and coach respectful communication, kindness, and responsibility. They offer support with conflict-resolution and emotion-naming tools, and build empathy through stories and group discussions. The sensory table is a quiet space where children can work on effective emotional regulation techniques.

We Offer Personalized Care With a 1:8 Teacher-to-Child Ratio (While the State Requires 1:12!)—So Each Child Receives the Attention They Need To Grow!

Plenty Of Time To Run, Play & MOVE!

Every afternoon, your child has opportunities to let off steam, get the wiggles out, and build gross motor skills. Kids enjoy group games like tag and relay races, climbing, sliding, or music and movement, whether outside in the playground or indoors in the playroom.

Nutritious Afternoon Snacks Are Included For Your Child

After a long day of school, your kiddo needs an energy boost. Their tasty, healthy daily snacks always include fresh fruit or vegetables, whole grains, and protein to keep their brains and bodies going until dinner time.

Regular Communication Keeps You Up To Date On Progress

We believe in open, proactive communication with families. Teachers use the handy Brightwheel parent app to update you with news, messages, and announcements, as well as photo and activity highlights. Plus, the team is always available for in-person check-ins at pick-up.

Security & Sanitization To Keep Your Child Safe

All entry doors are locked, and your child is always supervised with strict ID verification at pick-up time to ensure their protection. We sanitize high-touch surfaces daily and deep-clean classrooms weekly using child-safe, non-toxic products.
