Early Childhood Education provides children with the critical foundational skills, strategies, and experiences that promote success in school and beyond.
Research shows that students who participate in high-quality early childhood education programs:
Engage in more complex activities with peers and materials
Enter kindergarten with necessary skills for school tasks

Are less often retained or placed in special education classes
Mission
Our programs are based on the belief that in an effective Early Childhood Program:
Children learn best in an atmosphere that fosters self-esteem and confidence.
Teacher planned and child centered activities designed around language ability, skills and interest levels that integrate social-emotional, cognitive, physical abilities, healthy well being, and home and school.
A partnership should be established between our programs, home and community to link the child’s early educational experiences.
Each child’s cultural heritage and language is respected and fostered to enhance the child’s self-esteem.
We offer a loving, caring environment where each child can develop fully in a safe and nurturing atmosphere. We believe that love and acceptance, combined with just, fair and competent discipline, are the cornerstones of child's personal, social, intellectual and spiritual growth.
We were founded in 1970 by University Christian Church not to teach religion but to reach out all families in San Diego to offer quality care at affordable prices.
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.
