Description:
The Place for Learning offers affordable, nuturing, early learning for infact, toddlers and preschool children.
We have earned the trust and respect of our parents.
Child care must be responsive to each unique child. Our caregivers are passionate about children and education, experienced in providing child care and adaptive in their approach to meeting each child's unique needs.
Routine care and education are essential. We provide scheduled routine care; however, we know that today children need a solid early education program given the competitiveness we see in higher education.
Child care should be affordable but not at the expense of services provided to y/our child(ren). The Place for Learning will never compromise on quality.
Early education is important. However, current research shows that the results of early education, measured in academic outcomes and college readiness, demonstrate a dire need for improvement.We are serious about infusing education into "early learning" and that is much more than just a tag line. Come see for yourself!
Free parking and quick way to ferry or shuttle to PATH.

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.
