Glendale Child Care center was established in 1968 as a provider of childcare services  During the past 32 years, Glendale Child Care centers has been a leader within the childcare industry. We started as "All Seasons Childcare" in 1968 as a provider of childcare. Our company has evolved into not only a quality childcare provider service, but also a pre-school program that will enhance the educational development of your child. Glendale Child Care has now built and established more than 48 custom childcare centers across the country.
Much of this success is the result of the values and beliefs of Glendale Child Care centers founder, Paul J. Emch Paul's first mission statement was to "provide tender loving care and education too" for each child. Not much has changed over the years. We all share the goal of making sure that your child knows that he or she is someone special, and needs to be educated and prepared for the challenges in life. Paul expected every employee to be an ambassador of company principles -- demonstrating love, integrity, generosity, self-discipline and hard work -- simply treating others as we would want to be treated. The current management team has molded these values into their strategic plans and operating practices. These values, along with a team approach to management, have empowered Glendale Child Care centers to grow to nearly 200 employees who care for nearly 1,000 children each day. Paul is no longer with us, but his commitments to quality, education, and safety have been passed down to the third generation of family who oversee the operations.
What We Believe We believe that every child is a precious, God-given being with basic needs - social, physical, emotional and intellectual. We will work to instill proper manners and values, honesty and sharing, respect and self worth in your child. It is our purpose to meet those needs when your child is in our care, by providing a safe and loving environment here at our school.
School Director - Heather Dins

Hello, my name is Heather Dinn’s and I am the director of Valley Child Care & Learning Center. Every day I get to go to a job I love. Where else can you sing “Old McDonald,” trace you fingers, eat skittles as you’re counting and discuss the finer points of the latest superhero and say it’s all in a day’s work? I believe the saying is “Do something you love and never work a day in your life.”
Building a strong foundation in a child’s early education is imperative for later learning and I feel honored to have contributed in that for so many children in our center. Our fantastic teachers take pride in providing a positive environment where each child feels safe and loved. Our curriculum is age appropriate and uses “hands on” experiences to make learning fun. We also feel it is important to offer children choices, encouraging them to make good decisions. We see the children feel empowered by their good choices and we are delighted to see them learn and grow every day. Our center received a nationally recognized accreditation in 2004.
I am a Phoenix Native, I graduated with a bachelor’s degree from Arizona State University. My husband, Travis and I have three children, Hailey, Hudson and Gavin. I love to travel; my favorite places to go are the Caribbean, Washington D.C., and northern Nevada. I can’t resist a good Nicholas Spark’s book and love country music that can bring tears to your eyes. I am inspired by “seeing the world through a child’s eyes.” I welcome you and your child to come and take a tour of our center! I look forward to meeting you!
