Las Posas Children’s Center opened in June 1985. The founders were Robert (Bob) Alfino and Cheryl Reeder. Three-day and five-day week plans are available, and families can pick and choose which weeks to enroll in without paying for unattended weeks. During the summer months, the program offers a Summer Day Camp for K–8th graders, and families can email [email protected] to request registration forms and provide their name, which camp they want, and the number of children they want to register.

Las Posas Children’s Center was founded, and exists today, to support families in raising their children with high moral values and strong character. Its child-centered approach focuses on enhancing the mental, physical, emotional, and social development of each child through structured and unstructured recreational activities in a safe and nurturing environment. The program encourages responsibility, self-discipline, and good citizenship, and states that it desires each child to feel accepted, stimulated, secure, happy, and loved.

Las Posas Children’s Center, Inc. operates school aged childcare centers on six campuses in Ventura Unified School District. The LPCC Summer Day Camp became accredited by the American Camp Association (ACA) in 2003, and it was the first in the city of Ventura to receive this accreditation. LPCC has been voted “Best Childcare in Ventura County” in the VC Reporter for 12 consecutive years and was voted Best Day Care for West Ventura County in the Ventura County Star Readers Poll in 2011, 2013, 2014, and 2016, as well as in the VC Reporter in 2013 through 2024.
