About the Provider
Early Explorers Child Care Center provides a positive nurturing environment where children are exposed to stimulating activities; which encourages them to develop problem solving skills and gain social interaction, brain development, and emotional, physical & intellectual growth. They are encouraged to be independent, to satisfy their natural curiosities, and be given the opportunity to play which develops self-esteem and cognitive skills.We believe that learning these traits are the basis for a happy, creative, and well-rounded child. Parents are a major factor in creating a successful program. Through parent involvement we are better able to meet the needs of our families. We would like to work as a team to provide an environment that supports the growth of children. The center promise to recognize, celebrate and support each child’s unique personality, culture, learning style and developmental rate.
