Description: United Day Care Center believes children learn through play. Staff strive to develop a stimulating, inviting classroom atmosphere in which the children are free to explore and learn at their own pace. The teachers devote their time to supporting the learning and play of each individual child. Children learn to make positive decisions, develop problem-solving skills, learn self-control, and enhance their self-esteem all of which will have a great impact on their readiness for kindergarten and future success.
Teachers create age appropriate learning environments that promote children to learn through play and learning centers. Activities are created based on individual needs and developmental levels. Children who are enrolled at our center are engaged in a hands on environment that is clean, healthy, and safe. In our infant/toddler and preschool programs teachers develop lesson plans that are based on a weekly theme to engage children. The infant/toddler lesson plans cover the following content areas: sensory, gross motor, fine motor, creative expression, literacy, music & movement, dramatic play, blocks, and small group activities. The infant/toddler teachers also create individual monthly goals for each child. The preschool lesson plans explore: math, science, art, writing, large group & small group activities, blocks, dramatic play, literacy, gross motor, and music & movement.
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.

Provider Response: (Contact the State Licensing Office for more
information.) The parent'soldest two children attended the center and were fully vaccintated. As with all children, the center sent notices that her chil was due for additional vaccines. Mom submitted a religious exemption form for all vaccines on June 10, 2022. When looking up vaccine records on CHIRP for multiple children in July, we found that she continue to vaccinate her child for the same vaccines for which she clamied a religious exemption. MMR and Hep A administred 6-21-22. She was told this made her religious exemption invalied. She posted online "just turned in an exemption form so the facility woudl stop harassing me." The center showed that it had accepted religious exemptions in the pas and currenlty. We did not feel the exmeptin was made in good faith since she continued to immunize her child. |
