Description: Child Development Council is a private, non-profit child care organization serving over 1,200 children annually from 6 weeks to 12 years old in Luzerne and Wyoming Counties in northeastern Pennsylvania.
The Mission of the Council is to provide the highest quality of child care possible for all children entrusted to our care while promoting their social, emotional, physical, and intellectual development.
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.
