Desert Mirage

Champions at Desert Mirage runs before- and after-school care for children ages 5 to 12 in Glendale, with a program that mixes activities in art, dramatic play, math, science, language and motor skills. The program also runs during school breaks, including summer, winter and spring breaks, so children have somewhere to go when school is out.

Enrollment is handled online, and a child can start about 48 hours after the enrollment is complete. Weekly invoices go out on Thursdays and AutoPay processes on Mondays for the coming week. Drop-in days are available for families who need occasional care. The center accepts Arizona DES child care assistance and offers discounts for multi-child families, school district employees and military families. Questions about schedules or discounts are best directed to the site director.
