Description: IC3 is committed to providing families with the highest standard of child-inspired, professionally-nurtured care, and opportunities for learning. By providing a safe environment where children can explore and experience hands on learning, we offer a truly child-centered approach. Two fully qualified teachers are present in every classroom. When your child is at IC3, your child is the center of everything we do. Your child is the reason we’re here.
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.

From an insiders perspective I would really recommend to look elsewhere for childcare. The center meets state qualifications but unfortunately not much can be said beyond that. The general atmosphere here is much too stressful for happy, healthy babies and young children. Things have really gone downhill in the past few years. The administration does nothing to ensure positive change and instead pushes a lot under the rug. I've seen too many unhappy parents and kids to advise anyone invest so much in IC3, especially when there are so many other options. If you can afford the infancy program and it's close to home it may be worth it, but steer clear of the toddler rooms, pre-k, afterschool, and summer camp programs.
