Continuing the dream of giving all children the opportunity for quality childcare, I, Marian Benjamin, incorporated the Benjamin’s Afterschool Center in 2007.

To enable parents the flexibility to create their childcare early morning schedules while providing families with the highest quality of safety, childcare and parenting information. We build long term relationships within the community by helping families balance their needs: children, family lifestyle, work schedules and adult free time while fostering all aspects of children’s development and education in a “home away from home “environment for children ages 6 weeks to 5 years old.  To assist each child in developing physically, mentally, emotionally, and socially to their fullest potential.
