Your Child Deserves a
Small World
Where They're Known by Name
At Small World Child Care Center, every child is a priority — not a number. In our warm home setting near downtown Danville, your child gets the one-on-one attention they need to thrive.
Small World Child Care Center isn't a facility — it's a home. Located on North Main Street in Danville, our licensed home daycare offers an intimate, nurturing environment where children are treated like family.
Founded on the belief that young children thrive best in small, consistent settings, we keep our groups intentionally small. That means your child gets personal attention, real relationships, and a sense of belonging that larger centers simply can't match.

Why Choose Us
The Difference a Small, Caring Environment Makes
When your child is one of dozens in a large center, it's easy for them to blend in. At Small World, they stand out — and that changes everything.
Every Child Is Known Personally
We know your child's quirks, preferences, fears, and joys — because we pay attention. Each child receives care tailored to their unique needs.
Safety Is Non-Negotiable
Childproofed home, CPR-certified staff, thorough background checks, and strict pickup protocols. Your child's safety is our first priority.
Developmentally Rich Activities
Art, music, sensory play, outdoor exploration, and early literacy — all woven naturally into the day, not forced into rigid schedules.
Real Communication With Parents
Daily updates, open-door visits, and genuine partnerships. You'll always know how your child is doing — not just at report card time.
