At Hutch Kids, we construct a child-centered, developmentally appropriate, emergent curriculum that encourages children's growth and development, including their self-confidence, spontaneity, curiosity, and self-discipline.

As a whole and within each classroom, we consider ourselves a community of learners.

As an Early Achievers participating center, our faculty have access to scholarships and grants that cover their entire tuition for Early Childhood Education programs at local colleges.

Hutch Kids is committed to fostering a diverse, equitable, and inclusive culture for children, families, and staff. Individuals who are male identifying, members of the BIPOC community, and who represent a marginalized community are encouraged to apply given that their unique experiences and perspectives directly supports the need for young children to have both mirrors and windows within our community.
