We serve and educate children from the tender age of 6 weeks all the way up to age 12 in our after school programs.

Our Mission
As caregivers and educators, Our Mission is to provide a safe and developmentally appropriate learning environment, which fosters a child’s natural desire to explore, discover, create, and become a lifelong learner. We currently serve the Western Treasure Valley by providing care for about 180 children yearly and employ 30 staff members.
HISTORY
We Grew Out of a Desire to Serve the Malheur County Community
Our center began as a small, private care option known as the Giggle Tree. Our educators developed 50+ years of combined experience at the Giggle Tree, which is essential to the core expertise of our organization today. The Giggle Tree eventually expanded as our vision increased, and Giggles & Grace opened its doors in 2013.
To date, Giggles & Grace is currently licensed for 99 children in our center and 32 children at a partner’s facility. We are a non-profit organization committed to serving preschool and child care services to children between the ages of 6 weeks to 12 years old. Giggles & Grace currently has infant, toddler, and preschool classrooms as well as a before and after school program.
