Description: At the JCC Early Childhood Center our aim is to nurture each child’s natural curiosity, intelligence and enjoyment, as well as develop their Jewish identity. Warmth and affection are a constant companion throughout the day, as are stimulating learning experiences. We foster a spirit of togetherness and socialization influenced and inspired by our Jewish heritage and traditions. We pay keen attention to every child’s unique needs and preferences. Our child development program is founded on a variety of elements, including art, music, movement and cognitive skills. A developmental learning approach encourages children to be involved and discover things for themselves. At every opportunity, children are supported to explore, question, think and grow.
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.
