Claremont Center operates two exceptional day care facilities designed to provide a safe, nurturing environment for early childhood development.
For over forty years, Claremont Center has been dedicated to providing early childhood education rooted in the belief that childhood should be preserved and that children are the most valuable investment in our future.
We are committed to creating child-centered, developmentally appropriate activities that provide children with opportunities to grow socially, physically, emotionally, cognitively, culturally, and creatively in a secure, nurturing, and stimulating environment.
Our centers offer a structured yet flexible setting where children can explore self-concepts, observe, create, engage in play, solve problems, and rest while acquiring essential knowledge and skills. We are dedicated to fostering a family-friendly environment that meets the evolving needs of young children and their families through daily curriculum planning and parental involvement.
Following the Head Start framework, we believe that high-quality early childhood education and family services provide long-term benefits to children, their families, and society. Our curriculum is tailored to accommodate different learning styles, including those of children with disabilities and those who are gifted and talented.
