ChildCo Day School

ChildCo Day School occupies a convenient location on San Mateo Boulevard NE in Midtown Albuquerque, just off Interstate 40. For parents who commute across the city, ChildCo's central position means drop-off and pickup fit naturally into the daily routine. The center draws families from the Bel-Air, Hodgin, Altura Park, and Governor Bent neighborhoods, as well as parents working along the I-40 corridor.

ChildCo stands out for its nature-inspired play spaces that encourage children to explore the natural world through hands-on activities. The outdoor areas include natural elements designed to spark curiosity, from sensory gardens to open-air learning stations. These spaces reflect ABQ Childcare's belief that children learn best through play and direct experience with their environment.
