SCC provides a loving and nurturing early learning environment which promotes whole child development. Care and early learning is provided for children from infancy through the early school years. 

 

Environments and experiences are designed to promote curiosity, spark excitement, develop healthy peer and adult-child relationships, and encourage children to realize the freedom and independence that comes through exploration. 
 

By learning about parents' goals and needs, building trusting relationships, and exchanging information regularly with families, program staff support parents in fulfilling their role as the primary and most important educators of their child.

 

Parents and staff partner to develop individual plans when needed, and program staff supply referrals as appropriate.
