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.

Some places become more than just a building. They become part of your family’s story. ❤️

Twenty-five years ago, Wyatt Graves began his journey in childcare with one facility called Planet Preschool.

The names have changed.
The buildings have changed.
Kids grew up.
New families walked through the doors.
And eventually, that journey led here, to Fundamentals Early Learning Center in Central.

But one of the things we’re most proud of isn’t something you can see in these pictures -- it’s the people who stay.

Teachers who have spent years loving and teaching our kids. Families who trusted us with their first child and came back with their second... and sometimes their third. Former students who are teenagers now and still stop by a place that was such a big part of their childhood.

That’s the kind of history you can’t manufacture.

And this month, we want to celebrate the people who made it.

If Fundamentals, Child Pros or Planet Preschool has been part of your family’s story, tell us your favorite memory below. Bonus points if you have an old photo to share—we’d LOVE to see those.
