West Allis Center for Early Education (WACEED), a nurturing haven catering to children aged 6 weeks to 12 years. At WACEED, our primary commitment is ensuring a high-quality daycare experience in a safe and stimulating environment. Under the guidance of our esteemed founder, Keisha Spencer, who holds a Master's in Business Administration, we prioritize selecting passionate and engaging educators. Our approach at WACEED is innovative, particularly in teaching infants and toddlers. We emphasize immersive, multisensory activities introducing them to the marvels of science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics. We firmly believe in transcending traditional teaching methods by engaging all senses—sight, sound, taste, touch, and smell—to ignite curiosity and foster exploration in our young learners. Above all, WACEED ensures a secure and enriching setting where the growth and development of your child stand as our foremost priorities.
Curious about what your baby might experience in daycare? While each daycare varies, a well-rounded approach typically ensures comprehensive development. At our daycare, infants engage in reading, art, introduction to sign language, and hands-on exploration of both natural and everyday items. Outdoor time for discovery complements these activities. Moreover, babies receive ample opportunities to practice crucial skills—crawling, sitting, walking—that pave the way for developmental milestones. In our infant care program, we prioritize personalized attention facilitated by dedicated caregivers, ensuring moments tailored to each child's needs. Our carefully crafted plans accommodate their routines, nutrition, and any specific requirements. Our environment is purposefully designed with sensory-rich spaces and soft exploration areas, encouraging movements like rolling over, pulling up, and exploring through crawling. These secure and nurturing spaces nurture your infant's developmental progress.
West Allis Center for Early Education, offers a Toddler program integrating STEM activities that harness sensory exploration. These engaging experiences involve tactile, olfactory, and gustatory sensations, encouraging toddlers to touch, feel, smell, and sometimes even taste various materials. Our sensory bins, filled with rice, sand, or water beads, offer a hands-on way to explore diverse textures. Additionally, we stimulate problem-solving skills through age-appropriate challenges. Toddlers delve into puzzles where they learn to fit shapes intricately or engage in constructing sturdy structures, fostering their early engineering abilities.
West Allis Center for Early Education prioritize STEM integration within our preschool program, recognizing the significant impact early experiences have on children's brain development. Early exposure to STEM not only supports overall academic growth but also nurtures critical thinking and reasoning skills, laying a foundation for sustained interest in STEM studies and careers. Incorporating STEM into both our early childhood education (ECE) and out-of-school time (OST) settings at WACEED taps into children's natural curiosity and wonder.
Our school-age program is designed to inspire young minds with a blend of engaging activities in science, computer exploration, and homework support while fostering a love for art in a relaxed, homely atmosphere. We encourage scientific curiosity through hands-on experiments, ignite the imagination with computer-based learning, and provide dedicated homework assistance. In addition to educational endeavors, we infuse elements of fun into artistic expression, ensuring that every child feels at home in our laid-back yet stimulating environment. Our goal is to create a space where learning seamlessly intertwines with enjoyment, providing a sense of comfort and belonging for all.
