Summer Camp
Registration begins in April
- K – 12 Years Of Age
- Active Activities Daily
- Field Trips
Our Classroom
Each classroom is equipped with lots of games, activities, and free space for the kids to make independent decisions on what they want to play. We offer a range of outdoor activities and games to indoor crafts, art, and movies. Given the choice to make their own decision, children in this age group enjoy summer camps much more than traditional group care.
Is always active! From guest speakers coming into our schools to discuss cool and real life lessons, to taking weekly field trips and exploring our community – we do it all. Year after year, kids keep coming back to experience the fun and safe summer camp at Fundamentals!
Meals & Snacks
Continuing to reinforce table manners, independence, and good eating habits, we offer more freedom of choice during meal time at summer camp. Children who are with us all day enjoy daily, nutritious snacks and meals to include breakfast, lunch and an afternoon snack.

🎉 25 YEARS IN CHILDCARE! 🎉
Today, we celebrated something truly special — 25 years of Wyatt Graves dedicating his life to children, families, and early childhood education. ❤️
What started 25 years ago as a dream and a passion has grown into something so much bigger than any of us could have imagined.
Today, we celebrated where it all began, the journey along the way, and where that journey has brought us today — Fundamentals Early Learning Center. 🏫✨
Fundamentals is so much more than a building. It’s the laughter in our classrooms, the teachers who pour their hearts into their students, the families who trust us with their most precious gifts, and the countless children whose lives have been touched along the way.
Every classroom, every milestone, every teacher, every family, and every child is a little piece of the story that began 25 years ago. ❤️
Wyatt, your vision, dedication, and commitment to early childhood education have created something truly special. We are so proud to celebrate YOU, your accomplishments, and the incredible journey that brought us here.
Here’s to 25 years of changing lives, building relationships, creating memories, and growing a legacy. 🥂
Happy 25 years in childcare, Wyatt!
We can’t wait to see what the next chapter holds! 💙💛

Hard work, tears, happiness!! Wow 25 years!! So proud of you my son💪🙏
Did you know our founder, Wyatt Graves, started his journey in childcare exactly 25 years ago today? 🎈✨
While Fundamentals opened its doors right here in Central back in 2013, the heart, experience, and passion behind our school have been growing for a quarter of a century through Wyatt and Janae.
For the entire month of October, we will celebrating 25 years of serving families! If you drop by the center this month, make sure to check out our special anniversary photo backdrop and balloon arch — we want to see your little ones celebrating with us! Snap a picture, tag Fundamentals, and help us celebrate 25 years of community and care. 📸❤️

I've been part of Wyatt's world since 2020! We out ran the pandemic together in my first months there!
🎉✨ 6.58… AND WE’RE STILL CELEBRATING! ✨🎉
There are some moments as an educator that make you stop and say, “WOW. Look at what you’re doing.” And this is one of them. 🥹💚
Gabby & Shelby earned a 6.58 on their CLASS observation! 👏👏
That number represents so much more than a score. It represents the little moments that happen all day long — the conversations, the encouragement, the curiosity, the laughter, the questions, the patience, and the intentional ways they help their children learn and grow. 🌱🧠❤️
It represents teachers who aren’t just in the classroom… but are truly present WITH their children.
And at Fundamentals, that’s something worth celebrating! 🌈
Gabby & Shelby — we see your hard work, we see your dedication, and we see the impact you’re making.
⭐️ 6.58 is a BIG deal.
💚 YOU are a BIG deal.
🎉 And we are incredibly proud of you!
Keep shining, ladies! 🌟👏 ... See MoreSee Less
