Our Curriculum
Our approach is simple: To provide your child with a nurturing safe environment filled with encouragement. The goal of our early childhood curriculum is to help children become enthusiastic learners. We nurture a lifelong love of learning in your child. Our curriculum fosters the growth & development of the whole child in areas of: Social, Emotional, Physical, Creative and Cognitive
Our Philosophy
We believe that the early childhood years are the most important learning years. Each child is UNIQUE. Young children learn best in a child centered, creative play environment.

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.
