Description: The JCC Early Childhood Services Department is committed to providing a safe, nurturing learning environment for infants through kindergartners. We strive to instill in each child a love of learning, self-confidence and the desire to explore his/her world. Our staff supports each and every child as they guide the children through the school year. We believe that children benefit the most when parent, child and teacher work together as a team. Parent involvement is encouraged and parent/teacher communication is open and available.
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.
