Serving Fulton and Howard County Families with Daycare for Nearly Two Decades

Our daycare in Fulton, MD area has been on Clarksville Pike for nearly twenty years. It was built from scratch by people who genuinely cared about how young children learn, and that original intent still shapes the way things are done here today.

New ownership and leadership brought renewed investment rather than a reset. Executive Director Ben Costa and Director Kelly Wheeler have expanded the Pre-K program, added Before and After Care tied directly to Pointers Run and Clarksville Elementary, and put real attention into staff and physical environment. The result is a daycare that feels both established and genuinely alive.
