A Father-Daughter Team Welcomes You With Military & Educational Expertise

During his 20 years in the Navy, PJ trained hundreds of youngsters, many of whom thank him for setting them on the path to their current roles as Chiefs, Officers, or even Special Forces service members. With his calling to mentorship clear, PJ opened Mini Miracles in 2008.
His daughter, Ashley, helped out for a summer in college, and now, 14 years later, she’s an experienced, passionate director with a CDA (Child Development Associate).
Together, they welcome local families to a warm, inclusive community every day, offering the safety, care, and convenience that parents and kids need.

Partnering With Parents To Ensure The Best Care

We encourage you to help us help you. Tell us what works for you and your child at home and what doesn’t, so we can ensure smooth transitions and consistency. Teachers send daily updates on the Procare app, and Director Ashley sends monthly newsletters with weekly breakdowns of the curriculum and examples on how to incorporate what we learned at school at home.
