Our Classroom
All three year old classrooms are set up with unique learning centers that encourage children to be self-sufficient while fostering an understanding of basic concepts. Our child-centered room arrangement allows children to move freely from one interest center to the next, giving them the opportunity to make plans and choices in their environment
Curriculum
We choose broad themes to explore that allow each classroom to individualize their study based on the teacher and children’s interests and questions. A study of animals for example, in one room may center on animals at the zoo while another classroom may focus on pets and how to care for animals in your home. This type of individualization allows teachers to modify curriculum and build on what is exciting to their group.
A Day in the Life
We believe in a balanced day for your child. We create the perfect mix between quiet and active times, large and small group learning, child initiated activities and teacher facilitated activities to create a day full of learning and fun!
Meals & Snacks
Children who are with us all day enjoy daily, nutritious snacks and meals. Besides a balanced meal, we also focus on table manners, independence and good eating habits.
Circle Time
Every day we gather together and share stories, talk about our day and plan our learning journey. Being together allows us to get to know our friends, sing songs and play learning games. We assign helpers for the day, give a weather report and take a look at our calendar.
Full circle moment 🥹Crazy to think I worked at Fundamentals Early Learning Center - Central in high school and now my last baby is attending there! 25 years of business is a great accomplishment and I’m grateful to be a small part of it! Thankful for Wyatt Graves, Paige Marie Comeaux and all the staff! 💜 ... See MoreSee Less

🩷🩷🩷8 years my family has been with Fundamentals Early Learning Center - Central! They have done more than just “watched” my children. They have educated, loved, hugged, embraced, grown them and deeply cared for them.
I’d be lying if I said I have never questioned something. But I promise that every concern I have ever had was met with grace, heart felt compassion and the desire to address my worries.
Paige Marie Comeaux has been a God send to Fundamentals. She is the back bone to that place and cares about each one of those babies that step foot into that center. Fundamentals functions because of her.
I would say that at least 95% of the staff know my child by name and know each member of my family by name; even if my child isn’t in their class.
I honestly get sad, as I think about baby 2 leaving after this school year. A new chapter will start for him soon and then I’ll only have 1 left at Fundamentals. But these people here will always be family to me. #happy25years ... See MoreSee Less

With everything Wyatt Graves has built over the last 25 years, from real estate and construction to investing and mentoring other entrepreneurs, you might wonder why early childhood education is still such an important part of his world.
Because some investments are about a whole lot more than buildings and bottom lines.
In 2001, Wyatt opened his first childcare center at just 20 years old. He probably had no idea how many families, teachers, and children would become part of his story over the next 25 years.
And while his businesses have grown and changed, his belief in the importance of early childhood education hasn't.
Every day at Fundamentals, our teachers are helping little people learn BIG things. How to make friends, solve problems, gain confidence, and discover what they're capable of.
Wyatt has spent his career building businesses, but we're pretty proud of what he's helped build right here in Central ❤️ ... See MoreSee Less

As we celebrate Wyatt's 25-year journey in childcare this month, we're sharing stories from the families who have been part of it. And this one from Lanee Hebert is exactly why those years mean so much.
Lanee shared:
"I cannot say enough wonderful things about Fundamentals Early Learning Center! Our family was a part of Fundamentals for 7 years, and I can truly say it was one of the biggest blessings for our children.
Over the past 7 years, we have watched our children learn, grow, and reach so many milestones, all while being surrounded by teachers and staff who genuinely love and care for them. As a parent, there is no better feeling than knowing your children are in a safe, loving, and nurturing environment every single day.
What makes Fundamentals so special is that it is more than just a daycare or learning center. It truly feels like family. The teachers and staff go above and beyond to make every child feel loved, encouraged, and supported.
After 7 years, I can confidently say that choosing Fundamentals Early Learning Center was one of the best decisions we have made for our family."
Twenty-five years of childcare experience is something we're proud to celebrate. But hearing what those years have meant to the families we've served? That's what makes this anniversary so special.
Because the real measure of what we've built isn't how many children have come through our doors. It's the place we get to hold in their lives long after they've left.
Thank you, Lanee, for trusting us with your babies for seven wonderful years and for sharing a piece of your family's story with us. ❤️ ... See MoreSee Less
