Description: We at the Blessed Edmund Early Childhood Education Center are committed to provide a stimulating learning experience for young children in a sound, invigorating environment. Emphasis is placed on forming Christian character and values to help young children explore their relationship with God and to share their experiences in an atmosphere of joy, peace and goodness, flowing from love. Our goal is to create an appropriate climate of education for the development of the young child's character with self-control, respect for one's own dignity and for the rights of others, as well as helpfulness.
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.
