About Us

A home away from home, built on trust and love

Erin Cofer's Childcare has been a steady, caring presence in the Billings community — a place where children aren't just watched, but genuinely seen. From the moment they step inside, they're welcomed into a space that feels like home.

Located at 2101 Columbine Dr, our home-based program offers an intimate, low-stress environment where small groups of children build lasting friendships, develop curiosity, and gain confidence under attentive, experienced care.

Whether your little one is taking those first wobbly steps or ready to tackle letters and numbers, we meet them exactly where they are — and grow from there.

What We Offer

Care tailored to your child's stage

Infant Care

Gentle, responsive care for your youngest — feeding, soothing, and sensory exploration in a calm, secure setting.

Toddler Programs

Active, play-based learning that supports walking, talking, and the wonderful chaos of early discovery.

Preschool Prep

Building the social, emotional, and cognitive foundations your child needs before they step into the classroom.

Flexible Hours

Early drop-offs to evening pick-ups — we accommodate the rhythms of working families throughout the week.

Nurturing Environment

A home, not an institution — small groups, familiar faces, and the kind of warmth that only a family setting provides.

Family Partnerships

Open communication, daily updates, and a genuine partnership with parents — because your child's care is a team effort.

Our Approach

Learning through living

We believe the earliest years are not a preparation for life — they are life. Every moment at Erin Cofer's Childcare is an opportunity for real learning: sharing a snack teaches patience, building with blocks teaches physics, and a quiet moment with a book teaches focus.

Our approach is rooted in play — unstructured, child-led exploration guided by thoughtful observation. We follow each child's interests, celebrate their milestones, and never rush the process.

Parents tell us their children light up when they hear we're picking them up — not because we "teach" them to read or count early, but because they're having fun, feeling safe, and being themselves.

"We drove all over Billings before finding Erin Cofer's Childcare — and we're so glad we did. Our daughter cries when pickup time comes. That says everything."

— Parent, Billings

"The flexibility has been a lifesaver for our family. Early mornings, late drop-offs — Erin always makes it work. My son has grown so much socially and emotionally."
