Description: Entering the Cullman Child Development Center brings you into a light and airy, very pleasant facility with an abundance of natural light and beautiful wood accents. The 9,000 square foot Center was designed to meet the unique needs of children, with a large indoor play structure as the centerpiece of the inner courtyard. Fun-filled outdoor play areas fill with lively children each day that the weather allows. The Center is divided into separate, age-appropriate rooms - each room led by a teacher with extensive experience and education in early childhood. Daily projects and activities are a mainstay of the CCDC's development program, planned to motivate and excite children to "learn how to learn." There is also plenty of play time to practice social skills and problem solving techniques. Children receive a balanced breakfast and lunch each day and a nutritious snack mid-afternoon. A full-time cook prepares meals on-site in a custom-designed kitchen.
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.
