CHILDCARE

The Marita Theisen Childcare Center is located at 1584 White Street – in the heart of downtown Dubuque. We are conveniently located for our neighborhood families and parents living and working in the downtown area. Once the rectory of the former St. Mary’s parish, the newly renovated childcare center is custom designed as a world-class childcare center.

Owned and operated by the non-profit organization, Steeple Square, we are honored and excited to further our mission by providing childcare services to our community. We look forward to watching your child grow under the tremendous care of our team. You are in good hands!

Marita Theisen Chilcare Center opened its doors to area families in late August, 2019.  Our center is still accepting applications to enroll.
