Description: The mission of the Highlands Community Child Development Center is to provide affordable, high-quality, preschool child care and early childhood education in a safe and loving environment to young children and their families regardless of race, color, national origin, gender, age, disability, or religion.
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.
