Papillion Enrichment Center, North Aurora

Family-owned and operated, we nurture young minds through creative explorations and hands-on learning. Guided by a child-centered philosophy, we offer a rich curriculum inspired by the Reggio Emilia Approach. We are rated as one of the top childcare facilities in Ohio and Illinois. Cleanliness and our children's overall health and well-being are the top priorities at Papillion Enrichment Center. We are rated excellent by Ohio and are one of the few childcare centers in the state that carry this accolade, and we are excited to bring this to Illinois. We want to see children grow to their full potential in every way possible, and our staff takes this goal very seriously. At Papillion, we pride ourselves on prioritizing our children's nutritional needs. We have an onsite professional-grade kitchen, where our private chef makes our breakfast, lunch, and all snacks. We are committed to ensuring healthy meals with whole, clean, high-quality, organic, and locally sourced ingredients when available. This means we are constantly reviewing all ingredients that are in our foods and providing the cleanest and most nutritious menu possible. All our infant food is made fresh daily! We provide an exemplary, educational, Reggio Emilia-inspired school year program for children ages 6 weeks through Kindergarten and an enriching summer camp program open to children birth through 2nd grade from June through August. Our passion for the respect of the young child drives our multifaceted curriculum. Children will relish in their capabilities and explore interest-based topics while being exposed to proven content curriculum through structured and play-based lessons. We invite you to join us on an educational journey in our safe and nurturing environment that will inspire wonder and lifelong learning.
