Welcome to Go Kids

Small classes. Big hearts. A family feel.

Go Kids has helped Sioux Falls children take their first steps, make their first friends, and get ready for school — all in an environment built on biblical values. Parents tell us the same two things again and again: they love our small class sizes, and it feels like family here. Every day includes open play in our indoor gym, hands-on learning, time outside when the weather cooperates, and plenty of room to be a kid.

Our Classrooms

From caterpillar to butterfly

Just like the caterpillar and butterfly in our logo, children grow their wings here — moving through eight classrooms as they get bigger, each with its own teachers, its own rhythm, and its own animal to call their own.

4 weeks – 10 months

Tiny Turtles

Gentle, unhurried infant care with feeding and nap schedules that follow your baby's lead. Our infant rooms fill quickly — a waitlist is available.

10 – 15 months

Playful Penguins

For babies on the move — crawling, cruising, and first steps in a safe space made for exploring.

Classroom photo
16 months – 2 years

Happy Hippos

Busy young toddlers learning words, songs, and how to do things "all by myself."

Classroom photo
2 – 3 years

Spunky Monkeys

Older toddlers dive into circle time, creative play, and potty training — with teachers cheering every step.

3 – 4 years

Rockin' Rhinos

Our in-betweeners — no longer toddlers, not quite preschoolers. Play-based days build social skills, sharing, and bathroom independence.

Classroom photo
3.5 – 4.5 years

Terrific Tigers

Preschoolers build early letters, numbers, and friendships through playful, hands-on learning.

Classroom photo
4.5 – 6 years

Laughing Llamas

Our kindergarten-prep class builds the skills, confidence, and curiosity kids carry into their first day of school.
