Oconto Falls Center

All-Day Child Care Program (Ages 6 Weeks – 4 Years)

Our All-Day Child Care Program provides a safe, nurturing space where infants through preschoolers grow through hands-on play and exploration. Guided by the HighScope active learning approach and Conscious Discipline, we support each child’s development—socially, emotionally, and academically—while fostering independence, empathy, and a lifelong love of learning.

Get Kids Ready 4K Program

The Get Kids Ready 4K Program provides a high-quality, play-based, and assessment-driven early learning experience designed to prepare children for success in kindergarten. The program is held Monday through Friday from 8:30 to 11:00 a.m., totaling 437 instructional hours over the school year. It is free for families and offered at all centers except Pulaski. Our curriculum incorporates the proven HighScope approach and Conscious Discipline practices to support both academic and social-emotional development.

All educators hold an associate degree or higher, ensuring children receive instruction from qualified early childhood professionals. Educators use COR data and kindergarten readiness reports to track growth and guide individualized instruction for each child.

Children must be 4 years on or before September 1st 2026, to be eligible for this program.

Before and After School Program

Our Before and After School Program provides a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment where children can continue their learning journey beyond the classroom. Rooted in the principles of HighScope Active Learning, we encourage children to explore, create, and discover through purposeful play and hands-on experiences that build critical thinking, independence, and confidence.

Tuition Support Program

Through community donations and support, Encompass can offer families tuition support to help lessen the burden of the cost of care. We do this by offering support based on a percentage of your family’s annual gross household income up to $125,000 and tapering off all assistance by $150,000 annual income. This program ensures that families who are under this annual income threshold do not pay more than 15% of their gross household income on childcare.

Family & Child Advocate Program

The Encompass Family & Child Advocate Program provides classroom care to children who may be experiencing a behavioral and/or developmental setback. They work to provide wraparound care and basic needs support to families. The Encompass Advocate Program can also assist in connecting you with many available community resources.

Foster Grandparent Program

The Foster Grandparent Program joins together two generations- seniors and children. The program enhances the quality of life for seniors and gives them a sense of purpose. The Foster Grandparent’s presence in the classroom gives parents and children an extra sense of security. The children have a consistent grandparent figure who mentors and encourages them in social play and classroom activities. Foster Grandparents are assigned to one of the eight Encompass centers and volunteer a minimum of 5 hours per week. What a win-win-win situation for Encompass, the children and seniors!
