About Us

Community Partners

Casa de Corazón® takes pride in being the child care center that communities, parents and businesses can rely on.

We partner with socially responsible community organizations like Seward Co-op and Target, working to create the best possible environment for our little learners. From organic, locally sourced food to the annual Trike-a-thon for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, we work to create experiences that teach kindness, inclusion, and acceptance.
