The Toy Box was established in the summer of 2002. Our purpose is to provide an environment which children feel comfortable exploring freely, to develop the social, emotional and cognitive abilities of the children in our care.
The Toy Box is committed to your children enjoying themselves, and having fun all in a nurturing environment just like home. Our staff are committed to enriched programing which will give the children the “best start” in preparing them for elementary school.
