For 20 years, The Learning Place has provided a safe, caring and secure environment and quality education programs designed to meet the individual needs of children. The Learning Place, located on the campus of Thomasville Medical Center is available to all pre-school and school aged children. Children are accepted at six weeks of age, or if there is a special need, as early as four weeks with a doctors statement.

Outstanding Educational Programs

Our educational programs start at two months in the infant rooms and extend through our after-school program, which cares for children through the fifth grade. Among other stimulating activities, we provide computers in each classroom starting at age 2 ½ and use software that is developmentally appropriate for each age group. We also provide two Pre-Kindergarten classes through our More at Four classes.  When your child leaves The Learning Place to begin his or her formal education, you'll find that he or she is well prepared.

Extracurricular Activities

We offer extracurricular activities to help you avoid the after-school rush. For a nominal fee, your child can participate in music and computer classes.

Your Second or Third Child Will Enjoy the Same Teachers as Your First

Although we have excellent facilities our teachers are what make us special Our staff is selected based on their educational qualifications and experience. We also choose teachers who are warm, empathetic and relate positively to others. Our teachers take classes each year to renew their qualifications and to keep abreast of current trends and developments in the classroom. Most important, we provide a stable environment. We have had exceptionally low turnover since our program began more than 20 years ago.

Parents are always Welcome

The Learning Place has an open door policy and we encourage you to drop in whenever you wish. Visit during off-duty hours, eat lunch with your child and volunteer in a classroom or for special fundraising events. Stay informed about The Learning Place by reading our newsletter and attending special events in our facility.
