Description: mission: To advance and enhance the development of positive self-esteem in each of our students. To pave the road to prepare for your child's future education. In keeping with the basic Tenets of early childhood education, brought forth by leaders such as Froebel, Piaget and Montessori and organizations, such as Middle States Accreditation team and the Association for Childhood Education International, we are committed to finding the developmental level and learning style of each child. We are committed to designing activities which will foster growth in the areas of social and emotional development, intellectual development, and the development of physical skills.
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.
