Child Care Center at Penn State Behrend

OUR PHILOSOPHY
The first environment outside the home is extremely important to the development of young children.  The Penn State Behrend Early Learning Center provides a warm, supportive environment in which children are encouraged to explore their individuality, to develop positive feelings about learning and to reach their fullest potential.  Daily experiences are planned for all areas of a child's development - physical, social, emotional, and cognitive.

Our program is designed to provide pre-school and child care services for children from ages 6 weeks to 6 years. 

Our GOALS:

*To support parents in meeting the responsibilities of raising children by providing care that is consistent with care received at home.

*To maintain open lines of communication with parents, keeping them informed about their child's growth and progress.

*To recognize and respect the uniqueness of each child.

*To provide developmentally appropriate programs that enhance a child's overall development through hands on learning.

*To promote a tolerance and understanding of individuals different from ourselves.
