The Children's Center offers year-round, full-day childcare for children from ages 3 months up to 6 years old.
Our program's philosophy is that children learn through hands-on, inquiry-based, open-ended activities.
We defend our children's right to play and believe that play is their work. We follow a Reggio Inspired Approach to teaching by viewing every child as capable and competent and our children's families as their first teachers and partners in the learning process. We utilize emergent curriculum, which is child-centered and child-initiated.
The Wisconsin Model Early Learning Standards and associated Guiding Principles provide a focus for curricular goals and outcomes.
