Celebrating over 50 years of operation!
The Child Development Center is a child care center that strives to provide a quality learning environment for young children. We are committed to the development of the "Whole Child." Our goal is to provide a safe wholesome environment where each child is respected and has the opportunity to explore their world, experiment with a variety of materials and develop at their own pace. We recognize the importance of teachers and parents working together as partners. We encourage family participation and offer opportunities for you to interact with your teachers, administration and other parents.
