Four Star Child Care Facility

The Learning Express is a 4-Star Center serving infants (6 weeks) to Pre-K (5 years).  Believing that smaller class sizes benefit both the children and the teachers by enabling the teachers to provide more individualized care, our facility operates under enhanced 4-Star ratios.
