Description: At the Charlotte Children's Center each classroom has been designated as a welcoming environment to the children, families and teachers. The soft neutral tones are purposeful to allow children's artwork and materials to be the visual focus. We believe children are natural explorers and learn best through play. Teachers facilitate collaborative wonder through which curriculum is co-constructed with the children. Children can express ideas visually, verbally, in writing, through music and movement. In addition, the documentation of the process of expressing ideas, illustrates to parents, teachers and children that their work has value. Outdoor play and movement happen daily for all ages (weather permitting). The playgrounds are used to further encourage children's learning and experiences. Activities such as art, sand, water, play, gardening, reading, nature walks and free play will be part of the daily outdoor opportunities.
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.
