All About For A Child
We would like to welcome you to For A Child, LLC — Day Care and Licensed Preschool. Our newly renovated facility is located in North Canton, Ohio in the “ServUs Plaza” in the lower level in the rear of the plaza. The area is quiet and secluded providing safety and security for the children when they play and for parents to drop off and pick up.
Our friendly, comfortable classrooms provide our educated staff with a fun, clean, educational, and creative environment for your children. Our staff understands that children are at their best when their needs are met through activities such as, but not limited to, literature, cooking, math, and letter manipulatives. These practices will contribute to each child’s personal growth and development. Along with the development of your child, we encourage parental support in daily activities.
