The Children’s Center is an inclusive early child care and education setting. The child care rooms embed preschool programming throughout the day. Each classroom focuses on all areas of development: cognitive, language development, communication, fine and large motor, activities of daily living, emotional growth, and sensory play. Children will learn through daily developmentally appropriate opportunities to explore, create, manipulate, and experiment. Progress will be monitored through daily observation and data collection to assure each child’s success.

Parents and caregivers are the primary influence in the development of young children. Because of this, it is our goal at the Children’s Center to help parents and caregivers understand specific disorders and how they impact their child’s behavior, and to teach new skills to manage life with a child who needs extra support. The expert speakers offer new strategies for parents struggling with their child’s unique needs that allow parents and caregivers to gain confidence in their parenting ability. Knowledgeable and confident parents create healthy and safe environments for children.
