At East Gate Kids, our Before & After School Age Program for children ages 5–12 offers far more than supervision. It’s a place where elementary students can learn, play, unwind, and grow in a faith-rooted, nurturing community that feels like home. Families love that our Before & After School Care is completely FREE, making high-quality, values-based support accessible to every child.

Consistent Year-Round Schedule

Families can rely on us year-round. We remain open during most school breaks and close only for scheduled holidays, offering stability and peace of mind.
