Welcome to The Strides Early Learning Center, a place where every child’s journey begins with curiosity, care, and creativity. Located in the heart of Arusha, Tanzania, we are dedicated to providing a nurturing environment that fosters the early development of young learners.
At Strides, we believe the first years of a child’s life are the foundation for future success. That’s why our programs are thoughtfully designed to support intellectual growth, emotional well-being, social skills, and physical development. Through play-based and structured learning, we help children build confidence, explore their natural talents, and develop a love for learning that lasts a lifetime.
Our team of qualified, passionate educators partners closely with families to ensure that every child receives personalized attention and guidance. We embrace diversity, encourage creativity, and celebrate each milestone in your child’s journey.
Whether it’s through hands-on exploration, engaging activities, or meaningful connections, The Strides Early Learning Center is more than a school—it’s a community where children take their first steps toward a bright and successful future.

Our Philosophy

At The Strides Early Learning Center, we believe that children learn best when they feel safe, loved, and inspired. Our approach blends structured learning with creative play, allowing children to explore, imagine, and grow at their own pace. We are committed to nurturing the whole child—academically, socially, emotionally, and physically—so that they are well-prepared for primary school and beyond.

Our Commitment

• To provide a safe and secure environment where every child feels valued and cared for.

• To deliver a high-quality, play-based curriculum that encourages curiosity and lifelong learning.

• To foster strong partnerships with families, recognizing that parents are a child’s first and most important teachers.

• To celebrate diversity and instill values of respect, kindness, and responsibility in all our learners.
