We are very fortunate to have several long term teachers, including our infant teacher, Kim; who has been with us for over seventeen years! Some of our teachers have earned degrees ECE or Child Development; and many are beginning to work on their CDA credentials.
We are passionate about ensuring that every child in our care has a safe environment where they can feel free to explore, learn and grow.
Our center is very family oriented and we work tirelessly to keep our environment warm and inviting for the families we serve.
