Wrapping up the week with more fun and even more love to share.

LVE will always be where our story began, and now we’re so happy to bring that same love, care, and family feeling to our new LVW location.

Two locations, one ChooChoo family, and so much more love to give. Thank you for growing with us!

✨ One of our favorite ChooChoo traditions! 💛

Every year, Ms. Mia treats our team to a special team-bonding experience—a chance to step away from the busy days, spend time together, laugh, and simply enjoy each other’s company. 🥰

This year, on August 28, we got to experience the magic of the Magic Lounge! 🪄✨ We only have a few pictures since recording during the show wasn’t allowed, but that made us enjoy the moment even more.

These moments remind us that ChooChoo is more than just a workplace—it’s the people, the teamwork, and the memories we create together. 💛🚂

Thank you, Ms. Mia, for continuing to make these special moments possible for our team every year! 🥰

Wrapping up our second week of September!

Another week filled with fun, laughter, learning, and lots of play at ChooChoo! From our everyday adventures to the little moments that make our days special, our classrooms were full of happy faces and meaningful experiences. 🥰

But what makes ChooChoo different? đź’›

We’re not just a daycare. We’re a second home for so many children and families.

Here, children are free to play, explore, create, discover, and learn at their own pace. We believe that some of the most meaningful learning happens naturally through play. We build relationships, celebrate each child’s personality, create a sense of belonging, and make sure our little ones feel safe, loved, and excited to come back each day. Because at ChooChoo, we don’t just care for children—we know them, love them, and grow with them. 💛

Here’s to another week of making memories!

Wrapping up the last week of August with lots of fun, play, energy, and learning! It’s been a fun week for our kids and a great way to finish the month.

And as we wrap up this week, we’re also getting ready for a new chapter. LVW opens this Monday, and Ms. Maria and Ms. Taj will be joining the LVW team for this new start.

Wishing you both a great first week at LVW! Bring the ChooChoo way with you — lots of play, energy, and learning!

“Ohana” means family, and that is exactly what we are at ChooChoo Chicago— ONE BIG FAMILY! 🌺🌴💛

What a way to wrap up an AMAZING summer! Today’s End-of-Summer Social was filled with so much fun, laughter, smiles, ice cream, Hawaiian vibes, and the sweetest family moments. 🍦🌺📸

But today was also a little bittersweet. 🥹 Some of our Locomotives, our big kids, are getting ready to take their next big step and head off to big school. We couldn’t be more proud of how much they have grown, learned, and blossomed during their time at ChooChoo.

To our graduating Locomotives and their families: please know that ChooChoo will always be part of your family. Our doors will always be open, and you will always have a special place here with us. No matter where your next adventure takes you, you can always come back to say hello, share your stories, and visit your ChooChoo family. đź’›

A HUGE thank you to all of our amazing families and staff for making today — and this entire summer — so special. Your love and energy are what make ChooChoo feel like home.

One summer. So many memories. A few goodbyes. And one ChooChoo family forever. 🌺🍍🌴

Here’s a little peek at the magic from today! 📸✨

MAHALO, CHOOCHOO FAMS! 💛🌺
