We're So Excited to Meet You

“At the Child Development Center, we believe that the best way your child can grow is to cultivate a holistic learning environment. Our CDC family is dedicated to tending to your child’s intellectual, social, emotional, physical, and spiritual needs. By creating hands-on experiences developed around children’s interests and developmental stage, our students are provided with opportunities to play in center-based learning classrooms.

We recognize that parents are their children’s first teachers and that children learn best when families are involved in their education. The primary bridge between home and school is the involvement of family and community, and we work to provide avenues to strengthen this connection for the benefit of the child. 

We are so excited to know your family as we walk together throughout your child’s early education. Email me to schedule a tour today of our newly renovated classrooms and playgrounds, and meet our sweet teachers!"

• Christian values are woven throughout every day at the CDC.
• We have small classes with low student-teacher ratios, and there are 2–3 teachers per room.
• Our teachers are high-quality professionals, with a long history at the CDC. They are continually developing their skills through training and courses.

"My youngest, Daniel, had never been with anybody else other than me before going to the CDC. I was worried about how he'd react in a new environment. However, Daniel loved his teachers from day one. He surprisingly never cried during drop off and wanted to stay longer in his class during pick up. I always felt so comfortable leaving Daniel in the care of his teachers. Having trust in your young child’s teachers is priceless, and his were always so kind and caring. Thanks to them, Daniel was always excited to go to school and was happy to be in their arms. He also got to participate in the numerous fun activities his teachers came up with and was very proud of his little art work. I am so grateful for everyone at the CDC." - Emmanuelle
