Description: Lehigh Valley Children’s Centers (LVCC) has been a trusted neighbor since 1970. We provide high quality early education and child care to promote healthy child development, meet the needs of families, and encourage children to discover the joy of learning.
More than 1,000 children receive high-quality early childhood education and child care services each day at LVCC. We’re the largest full day, year-round, early care and education provider in the region, with over 20 convenient locations in Lehigh and Northampton Counties.
Starting with children as young as six weeks and continuing through elementary school age, we guide and encourage children as they learn and develop new 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.
