Off-Site School-Aged Child Care

Aquarian Charter, Lake Hood and Turnagain are licensed before and after school programs that serve youth ages five to 12 years.

Our program offers a variety of activities that reflect the developmental needs of the children we serve. We develop self-confidence, self-expression, positive social interaction and self-reliance through our learning center based curriculum in seven key areas:

• Artistic Expression
• Music & Movement
• Dramatic Play
• Outside Play
• Literacy
• Science & Technology
• Manipulatives (Construction Play)

Our goal is to provide quality childcare in a safe and inviting environment. We strive to develop self-esteem, trust and honesty, teamwork, leadership skills, interpersonal skills, competitiveness and initiative.

Our staff members are trained to support, guide and encourage children to play and act responsibly. We use positive behavior guidance techniques to protect the safety and welfare of our children as we promote their social development.

In addition to before and after school care, our off site programs provide all-day care on select in-service days, half days and holidays observed by the Anchorage School District. Our program calendar is based on the annual Anchorage School District school year calendar.

These programs operate on a space available basis. Registration must take place in person at our office located in the west wing of the Woodland Park Clubhouse.
