At Small Tales Day Care, we believe that strong communities start with strong beginnings. In the Adirondacks, that means making sure every family, no matter their zip code or income, has access to safe, high-quality early childhood education.

In many of our rural towns, childcare isn’t just a service; it’s a lifeline. When families have reliable care, parents can work, businesses can grow, and children can thrive close to home. But without continued investment, childcare in the Adirondacks remains fragile, centers close, waiting lists grow, and young families are forced to leave the region.

Our mission is to change that.

Our initiatives:

Preservation: Sustain and strengthen our existing centers in Warrensburg and Chester, ensuring families can depend on consistent, nurturing care.

Expansion: Open new classrooms and eventually new centers across the Adirondack region, filling the critical gaps in childcare access for working families.

Investment: Provide ongoing training, fair wages, and professional development for our hardworking teachers, the heart of what we do every day.

Every dollar you give helps us build a stronger foundation for Adirondack families, keeping childcare accessible, teachers supported, and communities vibrant for generations to come.

Together, we can keep early childhood education alive and growing in the Adirondacks. Will you join us?
