Santa Fe Centers

Santa Fe Centers provide a high quality, supportive, family-centered program for young children in a warm, safe and responsive environment while their parents are elsewhere.
Children are actively engaged in a variety of play and daily living experiences which are designed to: Promote their physical, social, emotional and cognitive development; Encourage cooperation, responsibility and consideration of others based on age appropriateness and within reasonable expectations.
Our philosophy is based on the principle that children learn most effectively when they can explore and discover using materials that are of interest to them.
