About the Provider
Rainbow Child Care Center’s program has been developed to serve the needs of today's family. We answer the dilemma that many parents face: where to find quality child care. As teachers and care givers, our goal is to achieve a sense of continuity between home and center. We believe it is important for children to maintain a familiar and comfortable routine. Through parent/teacher communication, we individualize each child's care and learning opportunities. As a family oriented child development center, Rainbow Child Care Center assures a quality "home away from home." We provide an atmosphere where children are respected, staff are responsible and parents are always welcome. Our program enhances a child's development by offering a caring atmosphere combined with a structured curriculum. We believe in helping children develop a positive self-image, sense of independence and self-discipline through developmentally appropriate activities. Each individual child's needs are of the utmost importance. We share with the parents the belief that each child is a precious gift.
