Educational and Child Care

Your child is a one-of-a-kind, inquiring, observing, intelligent creation. We recognize that children are ready, even as infants, to seize every opportunity to learn and experience educational growth.  With services through Rainbows' Kids' PointSM  the cookie-cutter approach is not an option for your child.

Kids' PointSM services include progressive plans for all children regardless of their skill levels to provide the most trusted educational opportunities for all children ages birth through 5.

Payton's Chance

At three years old Payton Ryan could only say three words. His primary means of communication was pointing and grunting. After an initial screening, he began receiving home visits from Rainbows staff. His therapists, gave his parents tools to work with him and were sure to include Buddy, Payton’s best friend and rag doll, in his lessons. That fall, Payton enrolled with Kids’ CoveSM early education program, where his parents saw his confidence spike. He made friends and began speaking in full sentences.

Two years later, Payton is kindergarten-ready as he joins Kids’ Cove’sSM 2009 graduating Pre-K class. He can tell you when something makes him angry or when something makes him laugh. “He can even repeat those unfortunate words that little kids seem to pick up when you think they’re not listening,” says his mom Kelly.

Kelly attributes much of Payton’s success with the determination of the Rainbows’ staff. “They gave Payton a chance. They gave us the gift of being able to have a conversation with our son. We wouldn’t be the same without them.”
