Description:
The Rowan University Early Childhood Demonstration Center (ECDC) is a high quality preschool and child care program providing a safe, creative and nuturing atmosphere for children ages 2.5-6 years old. Certified teachers promote learning through play-based activities to help young learners build academics, social and self-help skills.
We offer two classrooms: Gold Owls: a 5-day pre-kindergarten program & the Brown Owls: mixed age group with flexible scheduling options
Please note all children must be potty-trained.
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.
