Our indoor classroom is full of materials that are culturally rich and that motivate students to be mentally active. The furniture is all natural and creates an inviting aesthetic feel in the classroom. Our outdoor classroom is a great space for children to connect with nature and use movement as part of the learning process.
All our teachers have a passion for inspiring young minds to learn and grow through serving as a facilitator, observer, decision maker and collaborator in the classroom. By teachers taking on these roles, learners are allowed to think for themselves, construct their own knowledge and solve their own problems, therefore, creating an environment full of possibilities!

Peapod Learning Center was founded in February of 2008 as a licensed family childcare home serving 8 infants 0-24 months. We were part of the Start-Up and Expansion program through the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education, created to increase the number of high quality early childhood education programs in Missouri.
We are an in-home, licensed childcare facility that serves children ages 6 weeks to 24 months. We look forward to partnering with you to meet the needs of your child and family. Infants grow and learn every day. Peapod Learning Center offers a safe and nurturing environment where infants feel comfortable to explore and discover the physical and social world around them.
We are not learning to play, but playing to learn. Peapod Preschool offers activities that encourage and stimulate the cognitive, emotional, social, and physical development of each child. Through our learning centers, there are opportunities for exploration and discovery in a wide variety of areas such as music, art, dramatic play, math, science, reading, and blocks.
We are proud to partner with Missouri Department of Conservation, Missouri Master Gardeners, Dickerson Park Zoo and the Springfield Greene County Park Board to bring the only certified Nature Explore Playground to the Ozarks. With the help of our community, we have created a nature-rich outdoor space that allows learners to use the natural world as part of the learning process.
Enrollment is open to all children between the ages of 6 weeks to 6 years of age, regardless of color, race, national origin, religion, ancestry or gender. With an initial inquiry, parents are given information about our center, policies, and availability of openings. After the interview, parents have the option to reserve a spot for their child if there is an opening available.
