Our Mission

We are committed to offering a superior early childhood education to children, delivered to parents in a way that makes them a partner in the process!

The method for success in fulfilling our commitment:
We are committed to delivering a world-class early childhood educational experience to each and every child and let nothing stand in the way of that goal.

We hire teachers with the education, skills, abilities and, most importantly, talent (which cannot be taught), to deliver a world-class experience to the child in a personalized manner.

We create a culture where staff have a burning desire to deliver absolute excellent service to children, families, and each other.

What if building the good life starts long before you're old enough to even know what that means?

Our founder, Wyatt Graves, believes it does.

Fundamentals was never meant to simply be a place where children spend the day while their parents work. The vision was to create an early learning center -- a place where the years before kindergarten are treated like the incredibly important years they are.

Because children are already learning.

They're learning how to communicate. How to solve problems. How to make friends. How to follow directions, handle big feelings, become more independent and discover what they're capable of.

The foundation is being built whether we're intentional about it or not.

Wyatt talks a lot today about building the good life -- surrounding yourself with the right people, continuing to grow, serving others and creating a life you're proud of.

At Fundamentals, we just get to start a little earlier. ❤️

They were the very first baby class at Fundamentals... then they came back dressed for their freshman homecoming ❤️

(And, yes, they are banging on the door to be let back in in one of the pictures 😂)

These girls started at Fundamentals as babies the day we opened our doors in 2013. They grew up here together, became some of each other's very first best friends, and all these years later, they're still friends.

When it was time to take pictures for their freshman homecoming, they came back to where their story together started.

MJ's mom, Katrina Ward, shared this with us:

“Fundamentals will always hold such a special place in our hearts. It was so much more than the place I trusted with my baby girl, MJ, it became part of our village.

The staff loved my baby. They truly knew her, her personality, her moods, what made her smile, and even when she just wasn’t having a good day. They knew when she needed a little extra love, a different approach, or simply someone who understood how to refocus her and help turn her day around.

And Fundamentals gave her something else that has lasted far beyond her time there: some of her very first best friends. These girls started out as babies growing up together, and all these years later, that friendship continues.

Fundamentals helped raise our babies. They loved them, taught them, redirected them, celebrated them, and gave them a place where they belonged.

It really does take a village and I will forever be grateful that Fundamentals was part of ours.”

As we celebrate 25 years since Wyatt first stepped into childcare, these are the stories that put those years into perspective.

You can count years.
You can count classrooms.
You can count how many children have walked through the doors.

But then the first babies you cared for show back up as high school freshmen, still best friends, suddenly you can SEE what all those years mean.

We couldn't think of a better picture of the legacy we're celebrating this month. ❤️
