About the Provider

Advertisement
Building Blocks Learning Center is operated by the Cambria County Child Development Corporation which has been serving the children and families of Cambria County for over 40 years. Our quality programs are the result of years of experience caring for children.

The Building Block Learning Center program is a very unique program begun by the Cambria County Child Development Corporation in conjunction with the Teen Parenting Program of Cambria County. This program cares for children from birth through age 3 and gives the young student parents of Greater Johnstown High School the opportunity to bring their child with them to school. The student parents have the security of on-site child care and can fully participate in the high school experience. Building Blocks Learning Center is also open to the public. The program operates Monday through Friday from 6:30AM to 5:00PM based on the needs of families. The Director holds an Associates degree in Early Childhood Education and all staff members are required to take at least 18 hours of continuing education per year.

This program has earned the highly prestigious Star 3 designation from The Pennsylvania Keystone Stars Quality Rating Program.

Building Blocks Learning Center also participates in the Child and Adult Care Food Program and serves a nutritious breakfast, lunch and snack to the children.

The staff of Building Blocks Learning Center continues the Cambria County Child Development standard of excellence by utilizing the Pennsylvania Standards for infants and toddlers to create lessons that help both the infant and toddler to develop their cognitive, social and creative skills. These children are nurtured, nourished, loved and helped by a staff that truly cares not only about the child but the welfare of the family.

Building Blocks Learning Center is an excellent program where parents can be confident that their child/ren will be safe and cared for while they are at work or school.

Common questions

The answers people ask us for most often.

How do I contact a provider I found here?

In most cases the provider’s direct number is included in their listing. When it is not, we list the number of the Child Care Licensing Program — you may call that number for more information, or search for the provider online.

Will ChildcareCenter pass a message on to a provider for me?

No. ChildcareCenter only provides information, so enrolment questions, tuition questions and job enquiries need to go to the provider directly using the contact details on their listing. We cannot forward them and we cannot share contact details a provider has not published.

I run a daycare — how do I correct or remove my listing?

Use suggest an update on your listing to correct any detail, or claim the listing to manage it yourself. If you have closed or no longer provide care, contact us and we will update the listing to show that.
