We are committed to offering families exceptional child care at an affordable price, combining a nurturing atmosphere with strong educational foundations.

Our Story

Grace’s Place Child Care has been serving families since 1994, founded by Margaret Keough, a devoted mother of seven. After working in the childcare field, Margaret saw how many families struggled to afford consistent care, which inspired her to create a center that was both affordable and high-quality. Providing accessible childcare quickly became her top priority, and Grace’s Place was built on that mission.

Since Margaret’s retirement, her daughter Grace Keough has carried on the same values while expanding the vision to focus on staff education and a strong, enriching curriculum for children. With these priorities at its core, Grace’s Place continues to be a welcoming, affordable, and high-quality childcare option for families in the community.

Testimonials

On 8/31/2025 Valerie Lynch had this to say:
Graces Place is a welcoming and caring environment for any child. My child attended from the age of 5 months through 5 years of age. Grace’s Place promoted creativity, social skills, and an early / age- appropriate curriculum to better prepare my child for kindergarten. I am forever grateful for the knowledgeable and dedicated staff who happily greeted my child daily and planned activities that enhanced learning and discovery. If you are feeling nervous or apprehensive about finding the right care for your child, look no further. Great directors and teachers! Excellent childcare facility!

On 6/6/2025 Nancy La Jeunesse had this to say:
It’s only been a week, but my kids are so excited to come here each morning. The teachers are welcoming and kind, and it just feels like a great place for learning and exploring. I was nervous because I switched my kids from another center and was worried about their transition—but it has been seamless. I truly believe it’s because these teachers love what they do and it transfers to the kids. Thank you for all that you do, it is so appreciated.

On 12/14/2024 Renee Sobol had this to say:
Every parent knows how hard it is to return to work after maternity/paternity leave. Grace’s Place made my transition back to work a breeze. My son was 3 months old when he started going to daycare full time. Every single one of his teachers went above and beyond for my little man. I received videos, pictures, and texts daily from them. Their communication is nothing short of remarkable ❤️ 10/10 service and comfort knowing your child is well taken care of.

My daughter has been going to Grace’s place for a year and she loves it and has learned so much. Staff is very transparent and very good with communication. For a long time I was skeptical because of all the bad comments and remarks everyone made. But we are happy we trusted them and enrolled our kids here. Highly recommend!

My son has been here for a month now and loves it! I was hesitant because I’ve heard mixed reviews about this place but I 100% am satisfied and so happy that we switched to Grace’s place. The teachers are awesome and I am starting to see a change in my son educational wise and behavior wise. Definitely recommend it!

The School Age Club, located just a couple of doors down from the daycare, is a fantastic option for elementary and middle school students. It goes beyond the typical after-school setup, offering a club-like atmosphere instead of a daycare feel. The club operates before and after school, during summer, and school breaks. With a focus on after-school education, it provides engaging STEM activities, homework assistance, games, and tasty snacks. This unique blend of fun and learning makes the School Age Club an ideal choice for families seeking a comprehensive and enjoyable experience for their children outside of regular school hours. Enroll your child for an enriching after-school adventure!
