Children's Depot Childcare Centers
Children's Depot childcare centers is an affordable developmental childcare focusing on the individual growth and development of the young child. We believe individualized recognition of development is what sets Children's Depot apart from other childcare centers. Each class, starting at our toddler age, follows a curriculum throughout the year.
Children's Depot has three childcare locations in Colorado Springs. The Vickers location is a Peanut FREE center. The centers are locally owned and operated. The owners Dave and Karen Gardner are very active in the centers and can be found at any one of the centers on a daily basis.
We start classes at 6 weeks and go through 5th grade. We do have before and after school chilcare programs. We also offer a very active summer camp program for school age children.
We offer full-time, part-time, hourly and drop-in care.
All staff members are CPR/First Aid certified and are trained to administer medication.
