Our Mission

Safecare Development is a family owned and operated childcare center licensed by the State of Indiana. For more than 10 years we've partnered with Indianapolis families to provide exceptional care that supports the whole child — socially, emotionally, physically, and intellectually. We maintain careful teacher-to-child ratios in every classroom so no child is ever just a number, and our purpose-built facility gives children the space and resources they need to truly thrive.
