About THE OWNERS
Meet the Family Behind MCA
We’re Jason and Tysheka McKinnie — proud parents of three little ones who keep our home loud, joyful, and full of life. We’re a family that loves Jesus, Sunday football (go Chiefs!), crawfish season, and making memories together.
MCA was born from our own journey as parents wanting more than childcare — we wanted a place where children are deeply loved, academically prepared, confident, and surrounded by purpose. What started as a vision for our own family became a mission to serve yours too.

Resources to Train with Intention
We believe parents are a child’s first and most important teacher. That’s why MCA provides free monthly resources designed to equip and encourage families at home. From biblical wisdom on raising children to fun, practical activities that support academic, social, and emotional growth, our goal is to help parents feel confident, supported, and connected.
Kindergarten readiness is about more than letters and numbers. Learn the key academic, social, emotional, and behavioral skills children need to thrive in school and beyond.
Confidence is built through consistent, intentional moments. These simple daily habits can help your child develop independence, resilience, and a healthy sense of self.
Tantrums and emotional outbursts are opportunities for growth, not just correction. Learn practical ways to help your child navigate emotions in healthy and age-appropriate ways.
