When she realized that her philosophy of a back to basics approach was a shared one and after having worked at other facilities where early childhood education was just a job and not a calling, she decided to make her dream become a reality. Her dream was to open a preschool/daycare where a child's emotional well being and sense of security was paramount.
We have programs for children aged 6 weeks to 12 years, and you can select full or half day care in order to better meet the needs of your family. Our staff is CPR and first aid trained and the facilities are closed circuit monitored and have a keyless entry system to ensure the safety of your child.
Selecting a child care facility that is right for you and your child can be difficult. At Once Upon a Time, we will treat your child, and your family, with the individual care needed to foster a positive environment for growth and development. Helping children is our calling in life, and nothing is more joyous than watching a child grow.

We love Once Upon a Time! We’ve been going here for 3 years and couldn’t be happier. Our 3 children are thriving here. We love the staff and their commitment to and love for our children. Lisa, Vera and the rest of the staff have fostered such a strong sense of community for our children to be a part of, we’re so lucky we found this wonderful place!

Once Upon A Time has been like a second home for all of my kids. The staff is very caring and loving. I never worry while I am at work. The Director is very flexible and accommodating. It is also nice to see the relationships that form amoung the children. These friendships have carried over into kindergarten, making a smooth transition from daycare to school.
