Why Clayton?

At Clayton, we do things differently. Just like the parents and school leaders at Lily B Clayton Elementary who founded Clayton Child Care in 1975, we are committed to providing necessary care for children that serves both working families and schools well.

As the largest single non-profit before and after school program in Tarrant County, we provide an exceptional learning environment for our students and families. We hire and train people who are passionate about working with students. By partnering with school districts, we are able to enhance what is being taught in the classroom while also teaching essential life skills. Clayton Kids have fun while learning to communicate, problem-solve and collaborate and it’s these skills that we believe will help all of us build stronger, better communities. We welcome you to come check out Clayton and learn what makes us different!
