About us

Founded by a mom (and scientist) who believes early STEM can change everything

STEMful is more than just a place to go when school’s out. It’s where curiosity takes root and confidence grows.

Designed for children ages 1.5 to 10, our hands-on programs blend science, technology, engineering, art, and math (STEAM) to spark creativity and build real-world skills.

We believe in learning that feels like play and leaves a lasting impact. Every class is thoughtfully designed to sprout curiosity, nurture critical thinking, and support the whole child.

Why STEMful?

Invest In Their Future

You want your child to grow up confident, curious, and ready for whatever the future holds. And that kind of growth begins with the right environment, one that encourages questions, exploration, and joy in learning.

STEM isn’t just about science projects or future careers. It’s about how children learn to think, explore, and solve problems—from brushing their teeth to asking why the sky is blue.

Research shows that early math skills are one of the strongest predictors of later academic success, even more than reading. (Duncan et al., 2007). And young children are far more capable than we sometimes give them credit for.

That’s why STEMful begins early. We help kids build real skills through hands-on play in science, technology, engineering, art, and math (STEAM)—starting as young as 1.5 years old.

Because every child deserves a strong foundation, and the earlier they believe they can figure things out, the more they will.

What Are Parents & Caregivers Saying?

Our daughter attends STEMful for afterschool programming and absolutely loves it. The teachers are engaging and caring and the activities are fun and my kid is learning so much. She has learned about centrifugal force, kinetic energy, optical illusions, and so many other science concepts, all through play!

We feel so fortunate to have this options for our little ones! Stemful is educational, a great environment, flexible, and the kiddos get to go on fun trips to the park. They’ve always been there for us and willing to help in special situations. They have been one of the best supporting one of my children with special needs with open mind and heart. Love this place!

Stemful has a really rich, constantly changing range of programs. My 7 year old and 4 year old love to take camps there. The “a la carte” option is tremendously helpful for when I need care for just the odd day or two. The staff are warm and my kids come back from camp happy and stimulated. The kids get plenty of outdoor time too. I can’t recommend Stemful enough!
