We developed our Children's Centers to be unique educational childcare settings where children, parents, and staff routinely share learning experiences in a growth-promoting environment. Our concern is to provide the highest quality childcare, family support services, and teacher training opportunities. Our specific curriculum objectives are to emphasize individual, personalized learning, to develop child-initiated projects, and to encourage the child's development as a responsible human being in a climate of mutual respect, trust and caring.
