Our History Dear Families, My name is Matthew Bundy and I am the President of
Indi-Kid, the parent corporation to Finding Me Now Learning Center. Thank you
for your interest in Finding Me Now! We look forward to the opportunity to
provide exceptional service to your family through the early years of your
child’s life! Our corporation, Indi-Kid, has a long history of providing quality
care for families throughout Indiana. The company was founded in 1972 by my
grandfather Ray Bundy and led by my father, Michael, shortly after its
inception. In 2004, we committed to expanding our mission to “Care for children
in a manner that will please both the parents we serve and God” by carefully
selecting our new name. “Finding” symbolizes the age of discovery in a young
child. “Me” expresses the importance of the individual child. “Now” emphasizes
the value of each child at this very moment. More than 40 years after our doors
first opened, our traditional values of family, faith, and learning through play
are always at the center of our operations. We have based our program on the
traditional daycare tenets of love & play, while providing a modern learning
program that has earned the highest quality rating the State of Indiana awards,
as well as national accreditation from the National Association for the
Education of Young Children. Technology-based assessment and planning tools
provide our teachers with guidance to perpetually structure their lesson plans
to the development needs of each child as well as the group. We are extremely
pleased to feature The Creative Curriculum® by Teaching Strategies® as the
framework of our childhood education program. Our experienced team uses this
powerful tool to continuously assess your child’s development, tailoring
immersive lesson plans to individualized needs. On a personal level, as I was
considering the opportunity to join Finding Me Now, I was reminded by my older
brother of a simple prayer that he heard me pray many nights as a young child.
Growing up we were aware of the business that our father operated, thus my
prayer was to “keep the kids safe at daddy’s centers.” That prayer remains true
in my heart, but has grown to include a deeper ambition for the children’s
development and for the advancement of our staff. We look forward to
participating with you in the discovery and affirmation of your child’s
God-given and unique possibilities!
