Description: Our daycare has educated thousands of children since 1982, and was founded by an elementary teacher and parent of two wonderful children. Since then he has passed the torch to Mrs. Lisa. Lisa has been Director since 1998 but has worked here since 1992. Her three children and grandchildren are all students of Corson Park Day Care. She is a certified teacher with a degree in Psychology and a believer in what Corson Park can do for your child and family. Our daycare center focuses on problem solving, decision making and self-help, while promoting interpersonal communications. These are key elements which contribute to the child’s development, self esteem and confidence. We support the growth of the whole child in a family oriented setting. We provide a nurturing relationship that supports learning. Nutritious meals are provided three times a day at no additional cost. Our staff has background checks to provide safe hiring practices.
Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.
