Description: We believe children need a safe, well-rounded environment that nurtures their whole self. Our Whole Child Education approach to teaching goes beyond just prepping your child for kindergarten. Our curriculum concentrates on seven sets of skills, including early literacy, logical thinking, problem solving, social understanding, physical coordination, creativity and positive character traits, such as cooperation and self-control. We believe that every activity is an opportunity to teach. Our motto, “Play with a purpose,†guides the daily curriculum designed to stimulate your child’s fullest potential.By nurturing all areas of your child’s development, we are creating good citizens and lifelong learners with a strong intellectual curiosity.
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.
