Description: Our programs, which are located throughout Warren, Morris, Somerset, and Middlesex Counties, are primarily hosted in local elementary schools, thereby eliminating transportation issues and greatly reducing parental stress. Because we recognize that the learning process extends beyond the hours of the typical school day, we strive to provide a safe environment that promotes social interaction, focuses on free choice and responsibility, and engages children in a manner that promotes cognitive growth and development. Our current curriculum, Links to Learning, was collaboratively designed by the National Institute of Out of School Time (NIOST) and the National Afterschool Association (NAA). With respect to NJ curricular standards and our curriculum, staff design plans that include daily literacy and art activities, science and math activities (two times per week), and cultural diversity and social development weekly. Children are also provided the opportunity to complete homework and engage in gross motor/physical games daily.
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.
