Center Information

About Kiddie Kampus

Kiddie Kampus opened a nursery and preschool program in 1975 with the first location called Kiddie Kampus West. In September 1997, Kiddie Kampus of Medford opened to families in the community. The center firmly believes in a structured and safe learning environment for all children. We believe that Kiddie Kampus provides a secure and loving atmosphere that is ideal for the growth of young children.

Our innovative program allows each child to learn and grow at their own pace. We believe that it is our responsibility to help a child grow socially, cognitively, emotionally, and physically. The children participate in various movement activities such as singing, calendar games, outdoor play, and creative arts. At Kiddie Kampus our experienced teachers form a partnership with families through daily communication. Come in and discover a learning center that creates a strong foundation for early childhood.
