Kids' Depot originated in 1994, starting out as a small privately owned business with six children. Magille Gevock, our Owner/Director, started here from the beginning, bought the center in 2001 as her own, and has since expanded the center. Kids' Depot is our "Home Away From Home".
Kids' Depot of Iowa City, LLC is fully licensed and our standards exceed state requirements. The center is routinely inspected by DHS, the Fire Department, and Public Health. Our center can hold 69 max children.
Our location is professionally designed and built to accommodate busy infants, toddlers and preschoolers. Our facility, toys, outdoor playground and indoor spaces are all custom-built to meet the development needs of your child.
Our backyard is largely fenced in with plenty of room to run, explore, and imagine. We have several large equipment pieces on gravel, mulch, & sand, as well as a nicely cemented area to chalk, ride bikes, and play hoops.
Our Philosophy
We want your child/children to feel as comfortable at Kids’ Depot as they do at home. Our goals are to provide exceptional child care in a warm and loving environment for children 0-5 years old and meet the high expectations of parents who desire the best for their child.
We will provide the BEST available child care due to our dedication and commitment to meet the individual needs of each parent and each child in a warm and loving “Home Away From Home” environment. We welcome your input to improve our facility and program.
