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.

| Operator has not scheduled and obtained a fire inspection within 12 months of the previous inspection. Operator did not submit the original approved report to DCDEE within one week of the inspection visit on a form provided by the Division. A re-inspection was conducted in October 2024 but a full childcare fire inspection could not be conducted due to contractors not uploading their required inspections into the compliance engine on behalf of the facility so a full fire inspection could be completed per requirements. This was discussed with the director and fire inspector during today's visit. Contractors were contacted and uploads completed and fire inspector will conduct a visit on 4/17/2025. | |||
