Nurturing Children - Supporting Parents

More than 350 youngsters and 600 parents and guardians were supported this year.  With our recent expansion, we are now serving 400 children and 1,000 parents. Our program not only meets parents' needs for affordable child care, but the children's needs are fully met as they receive nurturing in all developmental domains in a secure, child-centered environment.

Leonard Johnson Early Learning Center

Children ages 4 months to 4 years learn to build both socially and emotionally secure attachments, develop academic skills to promote school readiness, work on fine and gross motor development, receive nutritional meals and snacks, and participate in hygiene routines that adequately tend to their needs.  Developmentally appropriate and culturally sensitive toys, learning tools and equipment are all available.  The Leonard Johnson Early Learning Center is accredited by NECPA (National Early Childhood Program Accreditation).
