RED BALLOON EARLY LEARNING CENTER OPENING NEW LOCATION THIS SUMMER

For over 25 years , Red Balloon Early Learning Center has been teaching Chartiers Valley-area kids from 6 weeks to 12 years old . This summer , the operation will get much larger when the center moves with all 50 employees to a new campus on the former St . Ignatius Church site in Scott Township .

“ We ’ ve repurposed the church to have an open play area and play stations like a veterinary clinic , extensive building-block area , post office , art room , library , and technology room . By fall , we ’ re hoping to have a kitchen up and running so families can purchase lunches for their kids ,” said Joanne Thralls , owner . “ We will still offer our summer programs for school-age children and maintain our status as a Keystone Stars center , a designation for facilities offering a higher quality of care . And , we ’ ll still be offering Pre-K Counts to families who qualify .”
The facility will also have a new play yard featuring various surfaces for children to enjoy and explore .
Thralls added that the same dedication to staff enrichment parents have come to know over the past 25 years will endure . While many of the staff have master ’ s
degrees in child development and early childhood education , they still take continuing education classes to stay current in the field . Most of the staff has been with Red Balloon for decades .
For more information on Red Balloon Early Learning Center , go to the website at theredballoonearlylearningctr . com , where you can find details on all of the programs and camps . The center can be reached by phone at 412.716.9920 .
