Ebenezer Child Care Centers

Non-profit early childhood education and child care provider, founded 1968, running eight Greater Milwaukee centers offering infant, preschool and school-age care.

Ebenezer Child Care Centers is a non-profit early childhood education and child care provider founded in 1968. The organisation runs eight centers across the Greater Milwaukee area, with locations in Downtown Milwaukee, Bay View, Brookfield, Oak Creek, South Milwaukee, Waukesha, West Allis and Fond du Lac. It has served the region for more than 55 years and merged with Mary Linsmeier Schools in February 2025, combining the two organisations' experience in the field.

Its programmes cover the full span from infancy to the early school years. Infant care begins at four weeks old, preschool places offer learning-enriched education for young children, and school-age child care provides before- and after-school supervision up to the age of 12. Across all centers the organisation applies its proprietary E.P.I.C. Curriculum, designed to foster independence, creativity and exploration in young learners. The work draws on expertise in early childhood education, curriculum development and school-age care programming.

As a non-profit, Ebenezer Child Care Centers describes its purpose as community service rather than profit, with a commitment to individualised, learning-enriched care for each child and family. The organisation holds NAC Accreditation and a YoungStar 5-Star Rating, and states a belief that all children deserve a clean, safe, nurturing and diverse environment that encourages curiosity, imagination and a lifelong love of learning.
