Inspiration Station Early Learning Center

As an educator, early education is extremely important to me. it sets the foundation for future academic success! I was very concerned I would not find an affordable preschool that met my high standards as an educator and mom. However, our family has been thrilled with Inspiration Station! While the tuition is affordable, the experience is quality! The director creates an environment where staff want to work, children want to come, and parents want to send their kids! It's important to me that staff are respected, treated well, and well-trained, and the center director does such a great job of this. The center communication through ProCare App and Social Media helps me feel connected to everyone through messages & posts as well as offering opportunities for the families and staff to interact through special events and partnerships. The facility is clean, well-maintained, and... Read more >

I CANNOT recommend Inspiration Station enough! The generosity from the staff speaks wonders. After just relocating here, we were filled with emotions making sure we find the perfect preschool for our daughter. We couldn’t be happier with our choice and are overall pleased with our experience here. From the very first day, our sweet daughter fit right in and they helped her adjust and feel comfortable. We absolutely love her teacher, the director and assistant director. You can tell they all enjoy their job and are there to help your child succeed. I love how family oriented they are where they always keep us involved with special events, open houses etc. Our daughter started there about a month ago and has learned so much in that short amount of time and enjoys going to school. THANK YOU SO MUCH to the amazing staff.. Your hard work and dedication does not go unnoticed🥰❤️ Read more >

The teachers at Inspiration Station are nothing short of supportive, trustworthy, and caring.

Inspiration Station has been part of our family for the past nine years. All three of our daughters were cared by amazing people all these years. It’s more than just babysitting your children. They had a routine throughout the day, participated in learning activities, in field trips events, family events, etc. The teachers are passionate and nurturing and you can see their dedication to all children. We could’ve asked for a better place for our girls. We are eternally grateful to Jennifer (Director) and all the staff for everything they have done for our family. Thank you! Read more >

Whenever you read people talk about how they “treat children like their own” you think that’s just the standard advertisement these days. However, at Inspiration Station they really do care for the children and you can tell that the teachers and the staff not only love the students but also love their jobs. Enrolling my child at Inspiration Station was hands down the best decision we could have made for his development. Big props to Ms. Jennifer and Ms. Ariana for running the place like a well-oiled machine. Ms. Kelly and Ms. Angelique are amazing teachers and deserve all the praise. Mr. Nick and Mr. Jayden are two of my son’s favorite people - not just teachers. I wish we moved to Mechanicsburg sooner and had used Inspiration Station earlier, but I am thankful for the year we had with them. If I could keep my son there forever, I would. Thank you again, Inspiration Station! Read more >

I love the PRE-K teachers! They did such an amazing job with this years class, especially with my son! They are very loving of the children and genuinely care about each and everyone of them! The kids are able to learn and have fun at the same time. It’s very rewarding to know that my child is in great hands in your care! Thank you for all that you do for the kids, you are appreciated more than you’ll ever know!! ❤️ Wyatt was soo lucky to have Ms. Kelly & Ms. Angelique as his teachers! We will surely miss you!

We were looking for a center that would allow us to do 3 days per week of our choice, instead of just Monday/Wednesday/Friday, and Inspiration Station was very flexible to accommodate the days we needed! We had our 2-year-old daughter there Tuesdays/Wednesdays/Thursdays for 1 year - she really enjoyed it and learned a lot. She went from pretty much non-verbal when she turned 2 in September, to talking in full sentences by the summer. We also enjoyed the caretaking and empathy she learned from their baby doll circle time model of learning. She is now clearly very aware of taking care of others and using her manners. They also did many art projects and sensory play, as well as had fun surprises like a fire truck and library bus come to the center. They offer many evening event for families as well, and do progress conferences twice per year. We also loved that they had an outside play... Read more >

I don’t have experience with sending a child to daycare (nor did I attend daycare as a child) and was quite nervous about it. I had also briefly worked at a daycare in college and had a bad experience. To say I was nervous and worried no matter where my son went was an understatement. Though I was very happy we got into Inspiration Station because we’d heard so many good things. We also chose them because based on their Facebook and from the tours, we could see Jennifer truly cares about her staff. They seem to go on frequent outings together, like they’re one big family! We also loved the appreciation and birthday posts for the teachers.Taking care of our incredible teachers is something that means a lot to me and my husband. Happy teachers, happy kiddos, happy parents!

Anyhow, we’re in our second week of daycare, and me, my husband, and especially my son are all so... Read more >

My daughter went through the pre-kindergarten program at Inspiration Station. We had such a wonderful experience. My daughter has ADHD and mild Autism and her teachers made certain that her days were tailored to help her succeed while also ensuring that she had the most inclusive classroom experience. Her teachers displayed ongoing patience and support during her pre-kindergarten year and she left well prepared for kindergarten! Read more >

I love working at Inspiration Station ELC. I been working here since 2019 and the staff and directors are nothing but super friendly.

With a terrible first experience with a daycare back in February, we decided to try again. After conducting our research and having a tour of inspiration station, we are proud to say this has been a wonderful experience. The staff is amazing with our daughter and very patient with her and her separation anxiety. Her vocabulary is growing everyday and she is excited to see her friends everyday. I am very happy we choose inspiration station to be part of our lives. Jennifer Heist Read more >

My name is Kelly and I have 2 beautiful girls that attend Inspiration Station along with myself.. Both have been here since they were 6 weeks old. Since then they both have received the best care from their teachers. They are treated more like family and that is so important to me. Inspiration Station has “parents night out” which is great because my husband and I can have a small date night while they stay and play with all of their friends! What makes it even better is that it is FREE for the children who are enrolled. In the summer time they have water days and the kids love it! The center also does lots of fun events in the evening, for the parents to attend with their children, just one example is Tasty Tuesday. The teachers read a book, and the parents and teachers help the kids make a tasty treat! This is a great place for children to learn, play, grow, and be loved! Read more >

My family LOVES Inspiration Station! My son has been going here for 3 months and adores his teachers. Prior to attending, the staff asked us a lot of questions about our son's routine/needs and they have done a great job following those instructions, making his transition from weekdays at daycare to weekends at home a breeze!

The staff are all friendly and they take time to work on infant milestones with my son. I love that we get updates via the app regularly!

My son is learning social and developmental skills from competent, kind individuals during times when his father and I cannot and that gives me peace of mind. Check Inspiration Station out! Read more >

Our three year has been going to Inspiration Station for over 2 years now and she loves it!
