About Us

Junior Chefs Kitchen provides hands-on cooking classes infused with nutrition education for children 2-18 in our Lincoln Park, Chicago based studio. Our services offer in-person classes, birthday parties, summer camp, and after-school programs.

We believe in enriching young lives through an adventure in culinary and nutrition education. Our curriculum is developed and approved by a Registered Dietitian and focuses on nourishment and educating our youth on the nutritional benefits of whole foods while fostering independence, confidence, leadership and positive healthy habits.

Our graduates

Children graduate Bright Horizons programs with the skills they need to succeed in private or public school. In surveys, kindergarten and first grade teachers report that Bright Horizons graduates are enthusiastic learners who are socially and academically ready for the years ahead.

As well as the local language in each country our preschools are based in, we offer various ‘immersion classes’ in the afternoons, such as Mandarin, French or Arabic. In some centers, we give bilingual lessons – although primarily, the native tongue of every Safari Kid kindergarten branch is English!
