Kelley Peake, Founder

Kelley’s extensive experience in the field of education includes a degree in Education with a focus on Early Childhood Education and more than 13 years focused on helping to make life a little easier for today’s busy families. As a working mother of two young children, 6 & 3 years, Kelley not only understands the issues parents face but lives these challenges each day. Most recently Kelley led the New Business Development initiatives for KinderCare Learning Centers, a billion dollar corporation. She was responsible for generating strategic business plans for growth of new channel development within the Education marketplace. She has been a part of creating unique business opportunities for quality educational companies that include, Hooked on Phonics, Lego, Scholastic, Leap Frog, Kindermusik, Computer Tots, Kinderdance, Early Advantage, Disney, and others. Her achievements included creating successful programs that gave parents options for improving the amount and quality of time that they shared with their families. Many of these programs grew quickly and are now being utilized by other companies.

With parents placing a higher value on quality family time and seeking to achieve balance in their lives, Kelley saw a need to improve the traditional delivery methods of childcare. In 2005 Kelley left her senior management role to pursue creative ways for today’s families to experience a more flexible and unique learning environment. Thus the PLAY Boutique was developed. At every session you will be confident that a parents’ high standard of education and fun are at the core of the PLAY Boutique. And, you will see the tangible evidence of Kelley’s commitment to creating quality opportunities for parents and their families.

Kelley has also worked to organize a group of local mothers into volunteer action. Kid Chicks, is dedicated to educating young children about the world around them in a way that will inspire them throughout their lives to make a difference. The moms of Kid Chicks are bringing together children, families, businesses, nonprofits, and communities to work on service projects that give children the opportunity to experience first hand the value of making a difference in the lives of others in a positive way.
