Providing a safe and nurturing environment for your child
At A Place to Learn, we are committed to helping build positive and confident children. Kids are our treasures, and we strive to nurture their potential by recognizing that children are never too young to learn.
We focus on identifying each child’s strengths and helping them cultivate those abilities. We encourage children’s natural curiosity to explore and learn, enabling them to grow in a safe, healthy, and positive environment.
At A Place to Learn, every child is an individual with their own unique ability to learn. Helping develop inner self confidence and personal ability at an early stage is a core part of our mission.

My name is Doreen McAllister, and I am a member of Delaware Avenue Baptist Church. My pastor is Michael Robinson. I am a born-again Christian, and my beliefs are biblically faith-based.
I am a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) and have been practicing since 1996. I currently work for Aveanna Healthcare, formerly known as Pediatric Services of America (PSA), located in Williamsville, New York. My strengths are in pediatric home care, where I have cared for children ranging from infancy to young adulthood.
I have also worked as a school nurse with Buffalo Hearing & Speech, Tonawanda Aspire programs, and in school districts across Buffalo, Amherst, Cheektowaga, and Williamsville, New York. I am currently still employed with Aveanna Healthcare.
At this time, I am transitioning and focusing my goals on opening my own childcare facility, A Place to Learn. I am repurposing my time and experience to better assist children in becoming self-confident and positive in their own abilities.
I reside in South Buffalo, New York, where I am converting and dedicating my 1,700–2,200 square foot property to support the childcare program.
