The Adult Learning Center’s Early Childhood Adventures Program offers high quality, affordable childcare for children from 6 weeks through Pre-Kindergarten.
We are accredited by NAEYC, the highest credential awarded to childcare centers nationwide.
Who We Serve
Early Childhood Adventures serves children from six weeks old through Pre-Kindergarten.
We offer full time care, Monday through Friday from 8:00am-5:30pm, year round.
What We Offer
- Infants - (6 weeks to 12 months) are encouraged by our philosophy that infants "can do." We provide a nurturing, warm, stimulating environment.
- Infant/Toddlers - The older infant and younger toddlers (12 months – 2 years) learn through "messy art" projects, manipulative materials, and nursery gym. We sing, play, dance, and read with children to develop their language skills.
- Transitional Toddlers – Our older, physically active toddlers (2 years 9 months – 3 ½ years) are exploring and on the move – both indoors and outside.
- Preschool - Children (3 ½ - 4 ½ years) learn through "play with a purpose" in an environment that invites them to manipulate materials, ask questions, and find answers.
- Pre-Kindergarten (4 ½ - 5 ½ years) learn the skills they need to succeed in school. Structured centers, activities and themes give children pre-reading, writing and math skills to get ready for kindergarten.
- We use the HiMama app to keep our families updated.
