Welcome to our Toddler Program, where little explorers are encouraged to learn and grow in a warm and nurturing environment! Our age-appropriate activities are designed to promote cognitive and social development, so your child can develop important skills while having fun.
We believe that every child is unique, and our program is tailored to meet the individual needs of each toddler in our care. From teaching little ones how to feed themselves and use their manners, to the important lessons of sharing and toilet training, we’re here to guide them every step of the way.
Our program encourages toddlers to explore and discover, giving them the freedom to learn and grow in their own way. Through play and social interactions, your child will develop important skills such as taking turns and becoming more independent in daily activities.
We believe in fostering a love of learning and independence in our little ones. Let’s watch them flourish and grow into confident and capable individuals together!

About Us

Stay ‘N Play Childcare

Get ready to groove to the beat of Stay ‘N Play Child Care Inc.! Our rhythm started back in June of 1998 with a modest group of 15 children, but we’ve been jamming ever since. With our commitment to quality care and early childhood education, we’ve grown our enrollment to over 120 children and counting!


In 2002, we took it up a notch and expanded our Litchfield center, relocating to a larger building that was better suited for our growing family. And speaking of family, we’re proud to offer preschool classes to the public, in addition to our children in care. Our passion for providing the best possible foundation for school readiness is what sets us apart from the rest.


In 2023, we opened a brand-new center in Willmar, located on Industrial Drive. The demand for quality child care and preschool has been growing steadily, and we’re happy to keep the tempo up!


At Stay ‘N Play Child Care Inc., we believe that every child has the potential to shine. That’s why we’ve made school readiness our top priority, following Kindergarten Readiness best practices and providing a fun, engaging environment where children can learn and play. So come on and join the band, and let’s make beautiful music together!
