We teach them the skills and provide them with the tools they will need to succeed in elementary school and beyond. Since 1967, we have developed a reputation for providing superior care in a healthy, stimulating environment where children between the ages of three months and six years old are encouraged to explore their interests and express themselves After they graduate and move on to local elementary schools, our children excel in Kindergarten and parents are thrilled with the skills and knowledge they have acquired at CSN. We are open 7:30 am to 5:30 pm Monday through Friday, with an optional late pick up time. We are conveniently located in three separate locations, with ample play areas for children to enjoy. Parents are always welcome to stop by.
Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.
