Description: The mission of CRADLES of Clay County, Inc. is dedicated to cultivating responsible adults by developing leadership, education, and self-sufficiency. The CRADLES mission envisions student parents taking their place in local communities as self-sufficient citizens within healthy family units. CRADLES will support student parents pursuing an education by providing developmentally appropriate childcare, parenting/life skills, training, and mentoring. As we offer support, sponsorship and mentoring, we believe the lives of the babies and children served, as well as their young parents, will be enriched, touched, and changed.
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.
