Welcome
Charlie Brown Preschool and Child Care Centers are non-profit organizations dedicated to the philosophy of providing quality child care. State licensed child care is provided year around, Monday through Friday from 5:30am to 6:00pm. Teachers and assistant teachers provide a stimulating program where children can develop socially, emotionally, mentally and physically.
Charlie Brown has been serving families in North Iowa for over 50 years! Programs include infant care starting at 6 weeks of age. Toddlers care, three & four year old care which includes preschool at no extra cost. Before & after school care and summer programs for school age kids. We believe in being flexible to accommodate busy schedules and keeping childcare as affordable as possible by only charging hourly so you're not paying for care you don't need! (minimums do apply to infants).
Charlie Brown participates in the Child and Adult Care Food Program under the guidelines of the USDA. Nutritious meals, snacks, education, and activities are offered daily to all children.
Strong Foundation
Charlie Brown Preschool and Child Care Centers serve as the foundation for quality for children since 1968.
The mission of the centers is to provide a stable, nurturing environment to children that encourages social, emotional, and developmental growth through building positive relationships in a preschool and child care setting.
Charlie Brown facilitates learning through play-based curriculum called creative curriculum. This not only promotes academic learning through age appropriate play, but also social-emotional development.
