Where Every Child Is Known by Name
We're a family-owned daycare rooted in Atlanta's East Lake community — built on love, trust, and a deep belief that every child deserves a joyful start.
Our Story
Peace & Play Daycare was founded with a simple but powerful conviction: that the earliest years of a child's life are too important to leave to chance. Our founder, a lifelong educator and mother, saw a need in the East Lake neighborhood for a daycare that felt less like an institution and more like an extension of home.
We opened our doors at 1909 Flat Shoals Rd SE with a small team, a warm space, and a big commitment to every family who walked through our door. Since then, we've grown — but our promise has stayed the same: every child will be seen, celebrated, and cared for as an individual.
Today, Peace & Play serves infants through preschoolers with age-specific programs designed around how children actually learn — through play, exploration, relationships, and joy.
I started Peace & Play because I wanted a place where I'd be proud to send my own children. Every decision we make starts with that question.
