Once upon a time, the PR moguls who run Las Vegas marketed to families encouraging us to bring our kids out to the center of all things hedonistic and sinful. It didn’t last long.

Las Vegas, Nevada, is not typically known for being a kid-friendly travel destination. HOWEVER, it is possible to bring your kids to the casino-laden city and they will actually enjoy themselves. However, however, the choices for leaving your kids in a supervised hourly care center is slim.

There are two centrally-located, highly-rated supervised child care facilities in Las Vegas on or near the strip.
