The Learning Locomotion

Prep School for the Young

Where Learning and Care Grow Together

Trusted by local families for over 25 years, The Learning Locomotion provides education-based childcare that helps children thrive — from infants to sixth graders.

At The Learning Locomotion, we believe every child deserves a safe, nurturing space to discover the joy of learning. For more than two decades, our centers have been helping children across the Lehigh Valley learn, play, and grow through individualized, developmentally appropriate care.

Our dedicated teachers foster curiosity, creativity, and confidence — ensuring your child builds a strong foundation for school and life.

Our Five Levels of Care

Each child learns differently at each stage — that’s why we’ve created five distinct programs designed to meet their unique developmental needs:

Infants (6 weeks–13 months) – Gentle, personalized care focused on safety, comfort, and early discovery.

Toddlers (13–36 months) – Play-based learning that encourages independence and social interaction.

Preschool (3–4 years) – Hands-on exploration through early literacy, STEM play, and imagination.

Pre-Kindergarten (4–5 years) – School-readiness program that blends academic structure with creativity.

School-Age (Kindergarten–6th grade) – Before and after school programs and summer camps that keep kids engaged, supported, and having fun.

Stay Up-to-Date

The Learning Locomotion staff use the Lillio app (formerly HiMama) to keep you informed of what your child is doing, information about their day, and more! All you need to do is download the app to your phone and you’re all set!
