Happy Go Lucky Childcare is a licensed Certified Childcare Center in Portland, Oregon. Our address is 1485 NE 106th Ave, Portland, OR 97220. We are located in the David Douglas School District, and we are a Preschool Promise site. Preschool Promise operates Monday-Thursday from 8:30 am to 3:30 pm. Wrap around care is offered for an additional charge.

Our program has a play-based curriculum and focuses on preparing your child for kindergarten, with appropriate modifications for younger children, through play. They will be learning the alphabet, numbers, colors, days of the week, months of the year, basic math skills, recognizing & writing their name, as well as many other skills, all while playing. Each day will feature circle time, arts & crafts activities, participating in group activities, large & small motor skills, story time and many other educational experiences. Our classroom is full of various toys for all ages and our program is attached to Gateway Discovery Park where we will play daily, weather permitting.

We are open Monday through Friday from 7:30 am to 5:00 pm.
