Special Beginnings Early Learning Center started as Holy Spirit Extended Child Care, at Holy Spirit School in Overland Park, Kansas. The program was founded by Lynda Connolly in 1987; and was originally licensed for 12 children. In 1989, Mary Hornbeck, Lynda's daughter, took over the program which then had grown to 24 children.
At the same time that Mary took over the program, it became clear that it had outgrown the current available space. Mary worked to find another location. With multiple locations in Johnson County, all of our centers have a family feel encouraged by years of referrals from the families who have been part of our program.

Special Beginnings is a special place and that's only possible because of the people inside those walls! We currently have 1 attending full day daycare and 1 attending after school care. They both attend the summer program/camp and the girls enjoy the many summer activities along with the friendships! I can guarantee that anyone would be hard pressed to find a daycare with more caring and loving instructors! Thanks for everything "SB!"
