What Are Tuckaway Child Development Centers?

May 18, 2017
Tuckaway is a family-owned child care center providing  the truly individual attention every child deserves, with stimulating hands-on and creative challenges that encourage them to learn more, without overwhelming them or allowing them to get bored.


Tuckaway's goal is to offer quality programs for children within a family oriented atmosphere. Tuckaway achieves this goal through a stimulating educational curriculum which is tailored for each child's age and ability. Language development, mathematics, science, social studies, physical activities, and music are a few of the instructional courses children will encounter during their daily schedule.



Tuckaway Child Development began in 1971 when Beverly and Karlis Graubics purchased a child care center inthe West End of Richmond, on Tuckaway Lane. Their vision was to provide children something other than being boxed up in a classroom until their parents picked them up; something they would want for their own children. 


Tuckaway has grown to a family of 6 schools in the Richmond area. Each school has its own unique characteristics, but remain true to the Graubics' original idea; have the space for children to grow and the environment to learn.

We have programs for infants, toddlers,  preschool age , private kindergarten, before and after school and summer camps.  You can  read all about  the programs here.

With locations all over Richmond, we can help to ensure your child is in a safe environment, while learning and having fun.
