4 Benefits Of Having 2 Or More Teachers Per Class

Independent Learning

More eyes on your child means they can learn independently as their watchful teachers choose to intervene in their learning process only when necessary

More Support

Teachers are supportive of the same learning plans to gently guide your child in ways that are best suited to support their strengths & develop weaknesses

Regular Assessments

Teachers have the resources to assess and scaffold your child’s skills as they learn at their own pace, fostering curiosity and a love of learning

An Inclusive Environment

Children with special needs receive nurturing care, individualized learning plans, and one-on-one care, so they thrive in a warm, compassionate environment

Degreed & Tenured Teachers Who Continue Their Education

Your child’s teachers have an average tenure of over 5 years. They shower your little one with love and bring expertise and the experience of being students themselves as they continuously train in the latest child development strategies.

Healthy Breakfasts & Snacks Are Included In Your Tuition

Your child’s day starts off right with a nutritious, allergen-conscious breakfast, and they refuel in the afternoon with a healthy snack. You only need to provide their lunch to tailor the midday meal to their preferences.

Air Purifiers & Electrostatic Spray Protect Them From Viruses & More

Every surface and space stay germ-free thanks to daily cleaning and sanitization. Electrostatic spray treatments and air purifiers eliminate germs and other microbes, allergens, and irritants from the environment. A bi-weekly commercial cleaning further protects your child’s health.

Best center in town and I would know, we have been through 4 others. My son is so happy here. He talks about all his teachers all the time and says how much he loves his teachers. I truly feel like the staff finally understand and accept my child for who he is. He has some behavioral challenges due to his Autism and they treat him no different then any other child and work with him to overcome his challenges.

My child has been here since his second birthday, he's in kindergarten now and still goes for after school care. I am just absolutely in love with CCDC and highly recomend them to anyone seeking childcare. My son has learned so much there, and I love that their curriculum is very play-based. The director is amazing, the owner is so kind, and the teachers are all incredibly caring and nurturing.

My kids love coming here! They do a lot of fun activities & really enjoy their outside play time. I appreciate knowing that my kids are safe & having fun. Each day I look forward to hearing about all of the things they learned that day. Whether it’s helping them learn their colors & ABCs, new fun songs, or more recently learning about bees & plants, the teachers are pretty great.
