When it comes to your child's development, nothing is more important than quality, loving care. WNC recognized a need for quality child care for its students and the community. That's why the college founded the Child Development Center, with the resources of the college's Early Childhood Education program.
At the Child Development Center, learning is fun! Infants and toddlers are encouraged in developmental and social skills, while older children experience dance, music, books, science, dramatic play, art and computers. Classes are structured around groups of children who have reached the same age and developmental accomplishments. Parents find the center to be a resource they can turn to for insight into their child's development and behavior.
The Child Development Center has two separate playgrounds, one for infants and toddlers and one for preschool children. This assures that children are playing with those of similar physical skills.
Each classroom in the Child Development Center has a head teacher who is active in early childhood education. The head teacher is assisted by aides who also complete training in early childhood education.
The center's programs are strengthened by active parent involvement. The Parent Action Board gives input regarding daily curriculum, enrollment, fund raising and community involvement.
In accordance with Federal law and U.S. Department of Agriculture policy, this institution is prohibited from discriminating on the basis of race, color, national origin, sex, age, or disability.
