And now there are fewer options than there were before, particularly with infant and toddler care. Over the years the Center's basic philosophy has remained the same, Girard said. We provide a stimulating environment for the children. Our goal is that they leave here feeling good about themselves and love learning. We don't do ditto sheets or desk work.
Priority is given to college community clients.
Enrollment is open to the public after the college need is filled. They know their child is just down the hall or in the next building. Being on a college campus is wonderful, too, because we provide a real lab experience for students on campus. We have students who come in from the education department, child-care management programs, psychology department, and speech and hearing. We're real lucky to have that.
