“Play is often talked about as if it were a relief from serious learning. But for children play is serious learning. Play is really the work of childhood.”
– Fred Rogers
What Is Flexible Day Care
We welcome you to make a reservation for your child ahead of time or to simply drop by or call whenever you need child care to see if there’s a spot available. Wanna Play Playcare is all about flexibility and customization. You can choose a custom Wanna Play plan that suits your family’s specific needs.
We provide high-quality, learning-focused child care to children from 6 weeks to 12 years old. Our daycare center is designed to stimulate kids’ creativity and help them learn and grow through purposeful play. When children see that learning can be a fun, joyful experience, it helps build their confidence and sets them up to be lifelong learners!
Complimentary Snacks
You’re welcome to pack snacks and meals for your child, but we do offer complimentary snacks throughout the day and offers a menu of kid-friendly meals upon request. We do ask that you don’t send any peanut products to Wanna Play.
Our Child Daycare Services
Stress-Free Evening and Weekend Care For Your Children
Wanna Play Lakeline believes that high-quality, learning-focused childcare should be accessible to more families in our community. We use a bill-to-the-minute system to make sure you’re only paying for the care you need and not a minute more!
Our playcare center is also open for extended evening and weekend hours to make weekend errands and after-school care easy and stress-free. If you’re running late picking up your child, don’t worry! All you have to do is call, and we’ll gladly extend their stay at Wanna Play. We can even make sure they get their homework done and feed them dinner from our menu of kid-friendly meals.
Why Play is in the Name
We’ve seen first hand how play can unlock a child’s curiosity, creativity, and inner brilliance. Our daycare center is full of stimulating activities that allow your child to grow and develop while having fun with other kids their age. While they’re playing, your child will be developing their fine and gross motor skills, honing their critical thinking skills, learning how to socialize in healthy ways, and gaining math, reading, and listening skills.
“It is paradoxical that many educators and parents still differentiate between a time for learning and a time for play without seeing the vital connection between them.”
- Leo Buscaglia
A Fun Place for Your Child to Learn, Grow, and Explore!
Play is one of the best ways to bring joy, creativity, and fun into the learning process. We show kids that learning doesn’t have to be boring and stifling – it can be magical and fun! Our child care experts will help your child discover their confidence, build their self-esteem, and encourage them to trust that they can tackle any challenge. We can’t wait to help your child learn and grow at Wanna Play Lakeline!
“Almost all creativity involves purposeful play.”
- Abraham Maslow

Our Team
At Wanna Play Lakeline, your child’s safety and security are always our top priorities. Every member of the Wanna Play staff is fully screened and must pass a Federal Fingerprint and Criminal History Background Check. Everyone is CPR and first-aid certified, and all staff members who handle food have a Food Handler’s certification.
You’re welcome to send meals and snacks with your child from home, as long as they do not contain any peanut products. If you’d rather they only eat food from home, we’ll gladly accommodate that preference. We also offer a menu of kid-friendly meals for breakfast, lunch, and dinner that you can choose from whenever necessary.
We take allergies and food sensitivities extremely seriously. When registering your child, please list all allergies and sensitivities in detail. We will take every precaution to make sure they do not come in contact with triggering foods.
Our full-time, licensed Playcare Center Director makes sure that we are meeting and exceeding all state licensing and our own company standards, and all of our staff members are caring individuals who are passionate about providing a safe, high-quality, supportive environment to every child and parent that walks through our doors.
"When I was very young, most of my childhood heroes wore capes, flew through the air, or picked up buildings with one arm. They were spectacular and got a lot of attention. But as I grew, my heroes changed, so that now I can honestly say that anyone who does anything to help a child is a hero to me."
