Excellence, in all that is done, is something that we strive for every day at King's Daughters. We maintain the highest quality rating given by the State of Tennessee's Quality Rating Improvement System.

Programs for every stage

Year-round care and early education, plus a creative arts camp every summer.

Learning through play

King's Daughters is a Reggio inspired center. We see each child as a competent, capable learner with inborn strength and creativity. Our project-based approach centers around play: activities are process-focused rather than product-focused, and teachers come alongside children in the discovery process.
