Description: A Pleasant Day Preschool & Childcare Center recognizes the many unique needs, such as cultural backgrounds, developmental levels and abilities of children. We work to provide a highly varied, challenging and well rounded program of learning experiences that will help children to develop academically, socially, emotionally and physically. Through this instruction, the young student will develop the positive attitudes and appropriate social/emotional behaviors that will prepare them for the future.
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.
