About GiGi’s Playhouse of Madison-Dane County

GiGi’s Playhouse is a one-of-a-kind achievement center for individuals with Down syndrome, their families, and the community. GiGi’s Playhouse offers more than 30 therapeutic and educational programs that advance literacy, math skills, fine and gross motor skills and more; all of which are free of charge.

GiGi’s Playhouse serves infants through adults, and programs are created by professional therapists and teachers who generously donate their time and expertise. All programs are based on learning styles specific to Down syndrome, and customized to ensure individual success. GiGi’s Playhouse is headquartered in Hoffman Estates, IL; with nearly 30 locations throughout the United States and Mexico, with more opening soon.  We are proud to have opened our own GiGi’s Playhouse in April 2016. 

GiGi’s Playhouse makes a difference every day. Our unique points of difference empower individuals and their parents to achieve their greatest potential with confidence, independence, and joy. We have a “place”– we will never let location be a barrier to success. We have “programs”– we will never let curriculum be a boundary to achievement. Most importantly, all our programs are free. We will never let cost deter our families from participation or impede the achievement of children and adults with Down syndrome.
