Finding the right childcare
in Beavercreek, Ohio

Beavercreek is one of the Miami Valley's most affluent suburbs, with a median household income of $110,088, and serves as a residential hub for Wright-Patterson Air Force Base—Ohio's largest single-site employer with over 30,000 employees and a $4.2 billion annual economic impact. The city sits at the heart of America's aviation heritage: Wright-Patterson AFB includes the Huffman Prairie Flying Field where the Wright brothers flew the world's first successful heavier-than-air aircraft in 1904 and 1905, and today hosts the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force, the world's largest military aviation museum.
