Teachers guide and enhance this process through materials and activities. Lesson plans are developed by staff denoting weekly themes and units of study that correlate with the Core Knowledge Preschool Curriculum and the Arkansas Early Childhood Frameworks. We are committed to providing a stimulating child-oriented environment, which is clean, healthy, and safe. Discovery or interest centers are arranged to offer challenging play, exploration, and success at a range of developmental levels.The Early Childhood Center is licensed by the State of Arkansas and is ADA compliant.

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.
