Description: At AtlantiCare Kids, we focus on the development of the "whole" child with programs that promote intellectual development and social skills. Unlike many child care centers that merely "baby sit" children, AtlantiCare Kids is an early learning center that provides a fun, safe, nurturing environment in which to introduce your child to the joys of learning.
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.
