A home away from home where your child can truly belong.
Jovankas Child Care was founded on a simple but powerful belief: every child thrives best in an environment that feels like home. Located in the heart of Tucson, our program offers a close-knit, family-oriented setting where children receive the individualized attention they deserve.
We understand that choosing child care is one of the most important decisions a family makes. That is why we have built our program around trust, transparency, and genuine care — values that guide everything from our daily routines to the way we communicate with parents.

Learning through play, growing through connection.
We believe that the earliest years are the most formative. Our approach is rooted in the understanding that children learn best when they feel secure, respected, and genuinely engaged. Every activity, every interaction, and every moment in our program is intentional.
We blend established early childhood principles with the flexibility to honor each child's unique pace, interests, and personality. Creativity, curiosity, and character are nurtured alongside cognitive development — because we are raising whole children, not just preparing students.
Secure Attachments
Children learn best when they feel safe, loved, and connected to their caregivers.
Play-Based Learning
Structured play is the primary vehicle for cognitive, social, and emotional growth.
Individualized Care
Every child is seen, understood, and supported according to their unique needs.
Family Partnership
Parents are essential partners in their child's development and well-being.
