For more than 40 years, Hephzibah has provided after-school and full-day summer day care services for nearly 700 school-aged children from over 500 families. The children and families are from diverse socioeconomic backgrounds, fulfilling a critical need in the Oak Park community for affordable, school-age day care. We offer a nurturing, enriching, and dynamic day care experience for children in grades K-5 after school, on school holidays, and during the summer months

Objective
Our day care activities are designed to help children achieve their full social, emotional, and intellectual potential by fostering the development of a wide variety of skills, as well as social competence and a positive self-image. Children gain experience in areas such as arts and crafts, group games, movement and music, field trips, and physical activities such as swimming and ice skating. Short-term goals are to decrease family stress, improve social support available to the family, reduce economic insecurity, and improve parenting skills. Long-term goals for families include increasing the likelihood that families can remain in Oak Park by relieving economic stresses that may force the family to move, preventing family dissolution, and preventing incidences of child abuse and neglect.
