Nurturing Children - Helping Parents

Our staff believes that children flourish in educationally stimulating and loving community-based environments. More than 200 youngsters and 500 parents and guardians were helped in 2016.  With our recent expansion, we are now serving 400 children and 1,000 parents. Our program not only meets parents' needs for affordable child care but the children's needs are fully met as they receive nurturing in all developmental domains in a secure, child-centered environment.
