What we're all about

A Closer view

After graduating with a degree in early childhood education, Owner/Director Alison Welch visited multiple child care facilities across the St Louis area. Her passion and discoveries inspired her to create an affordable, high-quality early childhood education center of her own.

What Parents Think

"My son has been going to the Exploration Station since he was 8 weeks old and he absolutely loves it there. The teachers and director are so friendly and loving, and the kids are always having fun and learning new things. I love the artwork he brings home and seeing pictures of the activities they do on Facebook while I'm at work. I couldn't imagine sending him anywhere else."
