About the Provider

Description:

Children Central is a Keystone STAR 4 program, the highest rating a preschool can achieve in PA.  Come visit with us and see why families agree that we are their top choice (and best value) in Preschool and children’s day care / child care for Langhorne and Yardley, Pennsylvania Bucks County communities and neighboring areas.

We utilize the well-known High Reach curriculum (www.highreach.com), which is aligned with the PA. early learning standards.   What this means is that in every classroom, the children are learning what their age group is expected to know and a whole lot more, as we have very high expectations for our students and teachers. You will see the weekly lesson plan posted in each classroom, starting with the infant room.

Our school represents society. Children come from many races, cultures, languages and religions to learn together and appreciate their differences.

Ages 6 weeks to 12+ years (includes Summer Camp, Before / After Care)

We will match corporate discounts! *(Please ask for details)

Additional Information:

In addition to having earned the highest rating possible for a preschool program in PA., we also offer a very popular summer camp program for ages 6-12 called Adventure Camp.  This camp features fun and educational trips for the children, in addition to swimming, tennis, and many other sports and performing arts activities such as talent shows and performances.

We will pick-up your child when the school day ends, and he/she can stay at Children Central until our closing time of 6:30pm.  Our after-school program (and tuition) includes the pick-up of your child from elementary school, an afternoon snack, excellent homework help if you want us to, and lots of learning, fun and care until we close. To enroll in this program, your child’s elementary school must be one that is included in our route (please check with Administration).   If you have another child enrolled at our school, we will provide a 10% family discount off the lowest tuition.

Prior enrollment and a registration fee of $75 is required.  We WILL be glad to apply this registration fee to cover our summer Adventure Camp, so you will not have to pay it again for the summer program!

We are glad to accommodate your needs as best as possible! If you should have any questions, or want to discuss your requirements in more detail, please let us know!

Drop-Off Days:

There are many days in the school year that your child’s elementary school will be closed for various reasons, when we are open (holidays, parent-teacher conferences, teacher workshops, election days, spring and winter recess, etc.).  Children Central is available to assist you on these days and LUNCH is INCLUDED!    You may meet with Administration to review the Neshaminy, Pennsbury, Bristol, and Council Rock school calendar to determine which days your child will need to attend.  Or, you may inform us at a later date, but at least two weeks before the day you will need to drop off your child.

Prior enrollment and a registration fee of $75 is required.  We WILL be glad to apply this registration fee to cover our summer Adventure Camp, so you will not have to pay it again for the summer program!

We are glad to accommodate your needs as best as possible! If you should have any questions, or want to discuss your requirements in more detail, please let us know!
