About 

Campus Kids Connection, Inc. offers programs designed to provide a safe and secure environment for children after school as well as summer camp.  We also offer 2 preschool programs and an infant & toddler program.  We work directly with Soquel and Santa Cruz City school districts. Our non-profit agency was founded in 1978 at Capitola Elementary school and we serve over 850 families in Santa Cruz County. We provide services to a diverse population of children in early childhood through sixth grade, at 7 elementary school sites and 3 preschool sites. 

Campus Kids Connection, Inc. provides quality, on-site child care programs in a safe, fun filled, and enriching environment for a diverse population of families in Santa Cruz County. We provide a variety of activities for children in a pleasant environment and assure that each child has an opportunity to practice a broad range of skills. These skills include, but are not limited to, problem solving, interpersonal communication, building positive self esteem, and conflict management. We feel these skills are essential for successful living in a rapidly changing society. 

There is significant evidence mounting that where and how youth spend their time outside of normal school hours has important implications for their development. The children of Santa Cruz County and the surrounding community benefit from their involvement at Campus Kids Connection because they are in a safe and supportive adult-supervised environment that offers them various growth-enhancing opportunities, including activities and experiences that promote academic, personal, social and recreational development.
