Our vision is a world where a young child’s family income, race, and adverse experiences do not predict life success.

ABOUT TULSA EDUCARE

Transforming the lives of very young children and their families.

At Tulsa Educare, we take pride in providing joyful hands-on learning experiences in our indoor and outdoor learning areas. We encourage children to wonder, theorize, and investigate.

We create collaborative relationships with families, helping children feel pride in themselves while appreciating the differences in others. 

We provide a supportive environment where children feel safe, confident, listened to, and motivated to learn.

What Makes Our Schools Exemplary?

Tulsa Educare provides children high-quality early learning experiences. Our practices are grounded in nurturing children's innate curiosity and love of learning through intentional environments anchored in play, exploration, and meaningful relationships. Our teachers are highly qualified, holding relevant degrees and certifications, and are supported within a culture that values teamwork, self-reflection, and continuous improvement. Operating from a growth mindset and using a research-practice partnership with a local university, we apply data and evidence in enhancing our program. We are committed to meeting and exceeding federal and state regulations and standards to ensure the highest level of quality in everything we do.

Tulsa Educare understands families are integral to their child's learning and development. We collaborate with families to support parent-child relationships, foster strong school-home partnerships, and build on family strengths. Families are provided resources that support their efforts to nurture their child's potential and support their dreams and goals. Tulsa Educare regularly shares child progress with families and supports families in increasing their knowledge of child development and school readiness expectations. Each of our schools also features dedicated spaces for family-engagement activities, including a parent resource library and training rooms.

Through a holistic approach to learning, Tulsa Educare supports children's cognitive, social-emotional, and physical development and mental health. We ensure individualized care and attention with low child-teacher ratios. Instruction is personalized to acknowledge each child's unique development and abilities. Nutritious meals are provided daily, and we ensure children receive up-to-date well-child visits, vision, hearing, and developmental screenings.  

Tulsa Educare offers full-day, year-round early learning programs that operate seamlessly from 7:30AM to 5:30PM, Monday through Friday, with no separate before- or after-care. This reduces the need for children to have multiple places for care, decreases anxiety and stress for children and parents, allows for deeper bonds with caregivers and peers, and supports social-emotional growth.

Our Schools

As part of the Educare Network we are committed to providing nurturing and stimulating environments where children are inspired to love school and learning.  Each of our four schools is designed with 16 classrooms that currently welcome up to 164 children and their families into our School Family. The schools include warm common areas and spaces for professional development, consultations and collaboration, family events, and child assessment and screening.
