ABC Learning Ladder Childcare provides a safe, nurturing environment in the heart of Monticello where young minds grow through play-based learning, individual attention, and a curriculum designed to prepare children for success in school and beyond.
From infants preparing to explore to preschoolers ready for kindergarten, each program is designed with age-appropriate learning goals, compassionate care, and an environment that invites curiosity.
Ages 6 weeks – 12 months
A calm, responsive environment where infants develop trust and security. Gentle routines, sensory stimulation, and one-on-one bonding time lay the foundation for emotional well-being.
Ages 1 – 3 years
Toddlers learn through exploration and play. Our structured yet flexible curriculum supports language development, motor skills, social awareness, and the growing independence that defines this exciting stage.
Ages 3 – 5 years
School readiness meets creative discovery. Children build early literacy and numeracy skills through hands-on activities, group projects, and guided learning experiences that make education joyful.
School-age children
A reliable, homework-friendly environment where school-age children continue to grow. Supervised study time, enrichment activities, and a supportive community keep the learning momentum going.
ABC Learning Ladder Childcare was founded on a simple belief: every child deserves a nurturing environment where they feel safe, valued, and excited to learn. Located at 102 Davis St in Monticello, Kentucky, our center has been a trusted part of the community for over a decade.
We understand that choosing childcare is one of the most important decisions a family makes. That is why we prioritize transparency, open communication, and genuine relationships with every family we serve. Our curriculum is thoughtfully designed to meet children where they are and guide them forward at their own pace.
Every child is known by name, understood individually, and treated with the respect they deserve.
Our programs are grounded in early childhood research, ensuring activities match each age group's needs.
We maintain open lines of communication with parents, keeping you informed and involved every step of the way.
At ABC Learning Ladder, we believe that the earliest years are the most formative. Our play-based curriculum creates natural opportunities for children to develop cognitively, socially, and emotionally — all while having fun.
Children learn best when they are engaged, curious, and enjoying themselves. Every activity in our classrooms is designed to spark imagination while building foundational skills in literacy, math, and science.
Small class sizes mean your child is never just a number. Our caregivers get to know each child's strengths, interests, and areas for growth, tailoring their approach to support individual development.
Safety is our highest priority. Our facility meets all state licensing requirements, and we foster an inclusive atmosphere where every child and family feels welcome and respected.
Our preschool program is specifically designed to prepare children for the transition to kindergarten. Through structured learning experiences and social skill development, your child will enter school confident and capable.
The families we serve are the best measure of the care we provide. Here is what parents in our community have shared about their experience.
Choosing ABC Learning Ladder was the best decision we made for our daughter. The staff genuinely cares about each child, and we can see how much she has grown both academically and socially since joining the program.
The communication from the teachers is outstanding. I always know what my son did that day, and the progress reports help me see how much he is learning. It feels like a true partnership between home and the center.
My son started in the infant program and has been with ABC Learning Ladder ever since. The consistency and quality of care across all age groups is remarkable. He is now thriving in preschool and ready for kindergarten.
