About Us

A place where little learners feel at home

Kerri's Early Education and Development Center was founded on a simple belief: the earliest years are the most important, and every child deserves a setting where they are known, valued, and challenged in just the right way.

Located in Chalmette, our home-based center offers a warm, family-oriented atmosphere where infants and toddlers thrive. Small group sizes mean your child gets the individual attention they need to explore, discover, and grow — at their own pace.

Why Choose Us

The difference a home-based center makes

Large centers are convenient, but they can't offer what a small, home-based program can: consistent caregivers, personalized attention, and an environment where every child is truly seen.

Small Group Sizes

Fewer children per caregiver means more one-on-one time, faster responses to needs, and a calmer environment where your child can focus and thrive.

Home Environment

No institutional fluorescent lights or echoing hallways. Our home feels like home — a comfortable, safe space where children relax and naturally want to learn.

Individualized Approach

Every child develops at their own pace. We observe, adapt, and tailor activities to match your child's interests, strengths, and developmental needs.

Flexible Scheduling

Life doesn't run on a rigid timetable — neither do we. We work with families to find schedules that fit your household, not the other way around.
