RESOURCES LINKS Let's admit it: we don't always know everything all the time about raising children. Questions and mysteries abound on a regular basis, even for "veteran" parents! Below, you can find resources not only for our facility, but also to help answer any parenting question in general. Keep in mind, the term "parenting" is used for anyone who is taking care of a child, whether that be a guardian, grandparent, relative or friend.
As an African proverb states, "It takes a village to raise a child", so we invite you to peruse resources endorsed by our caring village. Duck Pond Learning Center prepares children six weeks to six years for their next developmental steps, whether transitioning to a toddler classroom or going to kindergarten.

Kelsey A.: Perfect hours for families where both parents work! We especially love how flexible they are with last minute changes which helps relieve a ton of stress! I just want you to know that being in the school system now and experiencing other programs for child care that I am more confident than ever of how fortunate we were to be able to have [our daughter] be part of your "family".
