Our Mission
More than afterschool care —
we're changing the whole evening ☀️
Every child deserves to feel capable and confident. Every parent deserves to exhale at the end of the day.

By the time your child comes home, homework is already done. No stress. No rush. Just time to love on your child, cheer at the game, or simply breathe. That's the Sunny Side Up promise.

The Heart Behind Sunny Side Up ☀️

Alexis, Founder of Sunny Side Up Learning Center

Alexis

Founder & Director

🇺🇸 USMC Veteran · 8 Years Active Duty

Hi, I'm Alexis, founder of Sunny Side Up Learning Center and a proud Marine Corps veteran. After 8 years of active duty service, I brought the same dedication, discipline, and heart I gave to this country right here to our community — because our kids deserve nothing less.

I created Sunny Side Up because every child deserves the support they need to thrive, and every family deserves more time together. We create a fun environment where learning feels easy and memorable — from new math concepts to those pesky iReady tasks, we've got it covered. We'll help your child walk into every test with confidence and the right strategies. And while that's happening? You finally get to enjoy the quality time with your child that you truly deserve — lay your head on that pillow at night with ease.

This program was built with families at the heart of everything. When a parent knows their child's backpack is packed, their work is done, and they walked out smiling — that's the moment we love most.

"At the end of the day, if we can help children grow and give families one less thing to worry about, we've accomplished our mission."

— Alexis, Founder
