Pre-K Counts: Quality Education For Pennsylvania Families
Pre-K Counts is a Pennsylvania state-funded preschool program committed to delivering high-quality education for families within 300% of the federal poverty guidelines. Open to children aged 3 and up by the start of the school year, this program focuses on fostering growth, learning, and readiness for kindergarten. With specialized support for children with disabilities and a dedicated partnership with the Intermediate Unit (IU), Pre-K Counts ensures that each child receives the individualized attention and resources to thrive.
Teachers Offer More in Early Education
Educated teachers who have experience in early childhood education well beyond the State standards. It’s not just about their background but their attitude that makes all the difference, as they connect and contribute to our unique caring culture.
High-quality curriculum
Our fun curriculum will help your child grow and succeed academically and socially, so they are prepared for Kindergarten. The program prepares them for reading, math, following directions, and paying attention.
Providing Extra Care That Makes You & Your Little One’s Day Flow
Through the before and after school program, your child can expand their learning while being social with their peers. You enjoy peace of mind as they receive mindful, fun-filled care. The center covers morning care until 9am and in the afternoons from the end of school until 6 pm.
Yummy Meals Provide Ultimate Brain Fuel
Small Class Sizes
Small class sizes ensure that your child has one-on-one time with their teacher. This leads to enhanced student-teacher communication, engagement, and overall academic success.

FAQs
How Do You Keep The Building Secure?
We collaborated with a national security company specializing in childcare and will be more than happy to discuss our building security when you tour. We do not want to advertise this information to remain as safe and secure as possible. Be sure to talk with the director when you come!
Do You Provide Meals?
Yes! We provide two snacks and a nutritious lunch. Children are given water with snacks and milk with lunch. We also have a vegetarian option daily. All are included in tuition! Several schools participate in the Child and Adult Food Program (CACFP). For the Discrimination Statement, Click Here.
What Happens If My Child Needs Medication?
We have a medicine log where you would fill out all of the necessary information we need to administer the medication for your child. Medications must be in their original packaging and must be prescribed to the child.
What Do You Do About Food Allergies?
We keep close track of the children’s allergies and will make any accommodations necessary. We welcome any replacement items that you would like your child to have. However, we will make all our accommodations so you do not have to provide anything.
What Happens If My Child Becomes Ill At School?
Illnesses are dealt with on a case-by-case basis. If your child has a very high fever, vomiting, diarrhea, or exhibits symptoms of a contagious illness, you will be notified and asked to pick the child up. In cases requiring medication, we ask that the child only returns to our care after 24 hrs on medication. We will contact the parents throughout the day to update them on their child’s symptoms.

This has been the 3rd daycare my son (almost 2) has attended, and I love and appreciate this facility and staff. The director and assistant director are so friendly and accommodating. The teachers really seem to care about the children. I do not have to worry about my son and the care that he receives during the day. I would highly recommend the Creative Care Green Lane facility!

Magic memories is a wonderful learning center. Trying to find the right school with before and after care for my two boys, I stumbled across Magic Memories Royersford.

Once I walked into Magic Memories, I knew it was the right choice for my daughter by its unique family-feel environment. The teachers were patient with my daughter adjusting in the beginning as well as answering all my questions throughout the year, not just with emails but personal calls and face-to-face chats that helped build our secure and comfortable relationship.
