Description

Kid Care Connection, Inc. was founded and formed by Holly Donaldson and Nancy Loescher in August 2000. We are a for-profit, sub chapter S corporation that originally provided child care services before/after school (latchkey) at five Wichita Elementary schools and Mulvane Primary School . On May 31, 2005 we opened Adventure Planet Child Care Center on West 13th Street and in March 2010 we opened our second child care center location on West Central. Holly earned a BS degree in Psychology with a minor in Rehabilitation Service Education at Emporia State University in 1994. Since that time, she has worked in various social services in Wichita including: The Wichita Children’s Home, KETCH and Medallion School Partnerships - Champion's Before & After School Programs. Her career path has broadened her experience with children of all ages and with families from all socio-economic backgrounds, which assists her in better meeting the needs of all the families we serve. Nancy earned a BS degree at the University of Nebraska-Kearney and a MS at Emporia State University in Business Education . She has taught high school in Kansas for 19 years.

Naomi Reyes serves as our Nutrition Specialist for both Adventure Planet locations as well as the Assistant Director at the West 13th Adventure Planet. Naomi has been preparing, planning and documenting food and menus to meet our children's nutritional needs at Adventure Planet since August 2006 and has been in the child care field for over 10 years. She has an education background in Early Childhood Education and Child Nutrition. Naomi is currently in the process of obtaining her degree in Early Childhood Education from Butler County Community College. Noami has spoken at the Annual Fall CACFP training conference as well as provided a training for grantees through the Health and Wellness Coalition of Wichita. Vicki Craven is the lead Pre-K teacher and Asst. Program Director at AP Central. She worked as a Para Educator for the Mulvane School System for 14 years. During that time, she also lead our before and after school program at Mulvane Primary School. In 2005, she resigned her position at Mulvane to work at our new AP 13th Center. She moved to her current position when we opened our AP Central location in March 2010.

It gets ones attention when you see a medium sized structure get lifted in the air and go away. That building was moved to the north of the fitness center to be used for storage and allow an open drive to our new facility. Holly and I are partnering with a third person to provide a space for adults to exercise, socialize and focus on their overall health. Personal training, fitness classes, massage therapy and a pickleball club are examples of what will be offered. Our market is adults 30 years and up with classes and activities that will meet the needs of younger adults and older adults. We want an environment that is peaceful and quiet to exercise and unwind. Consequently, the children will have to be at Adventure Planet or at home with a trusted caregiver. If interested, please come to our open house this Friday 5-8 pm and Saturday 8-2. You can also visit our website at naholafitness.com. Of course, you are always welcome to talk to us personally.

Our Programs are designed to provide children with a fun environment in which they can learn and grow. At the same time, we seek to provide parents with a sense of security in knowing that their children are getting cared for in a safe and nurturing environment. And finally, we seek to work in a partnership with school districts to prepare these children for a bright future.

In all things, we commit to creating an exciting and sage environment for your child. We build strong relationships with our families and community. We offer families a sense of security. We provide you with a program that is professional, education, enjoyable and full of integrity.
