Description: We are a 5-Star Child Care Preschool Center serving the Belmont, NC, Gaston County area since 2001. We currently have our Summer School program underway and in a couple of weeks we will be accepting applications for fall enrollment.
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.
