Skidaddles

Our Story

Skidaddles was born out of a simple yet powerful desire: to create a child care experience that was truly flexible, enriching, and built on trust. Our founder, a passionate mom herself, recognized the struggle many parents face in juggling the demands of work, family, and personal time. Finding reliable and engaging child care that met the specific needs of each family felt like an impossible feat. That's when Skidaddles emerged, a haven for children to learn, play, and grow while providing parents with the flexibility they craved.

We believe that every child deserves a nurturing environment where they can explore their curiosity, unlock their potential, and develop a lifelong love of learning. Our dedicated team of experienced caregivers is committed to fostering a warm and supportive atmosphere where children feel safe, valued, and inspired to reach new heights.

Our Services

At Skidaddles, we understand that families come in all shapes and sizes, and their needs are equally diverse. That's why we offer a comprehensive range of child care services designed to cater to every situation.

• Flex Drop-In Care: Need a few hours to run errands, squeeze in a meeting, or enjoy a much-deserved date night? Our flexible drop-in care is the perfect solution. Located in Florence and Mason, we provide a safe and stimulating environment where your child can play, learn, and socialize while you attend to your day.

• Custom Full-Time Care: Seeking a more structured, long-term childcare solution? Our custom full-time care packages are designed to provide your child with a comprehensive and enriching educational experience. We work closely with families to develop personalized learning plans that cater to each child's unique strengths, interests, and developmental milestones.

• Creative Play Care: We believe in the power of play to inspire imagination, build confidence, and foster a love of learning. From themed birthday parties and summer camps to educational activity kits, our Creative Play Care offerings provide endless opportunities for children to engage their creativity, develop valuable skills, and create lasting memories.

Our Philosophy

At the heart of Skidaddles lies a simple yet powerful philosophy: Children thrive when they feel safe, valued, and empowered to explore their world. We believe in creating a nurturing and inclusive environment where every child can:

• Cultivate a Love of Learning: We encourage curiosity, exploration, and a thirst for knowledge through engaging activities, hands-on experiences, and age-appropriate learning materials.

• Build Strong Social-Emotional Skills: We foster a sense of community and belonging by promoting empathy, cooperation, and respectful communication among our little learners.

• Express Themselves Creatively: We believe that play is essential for healthy development, and we provide ample opportunities for children to express themselves creatively through art, music, movement, and dramatic play.

• Develop Confidence and Independence: We encourage children to take risks, solve problems, and make decisions, empowering them to become confident and self-reliant individuals.
