Infants
Report
We're different because we believe in less technology, and more human interaction. We believe in the power of play, we take our infants outside whenever possible to get them exploring the natural world in our safe, secure outdoor play space. Our infant classrooms do not have mechanical swings, light/sound toys, or screens of any kind.
Toddlers
Report
After your child is walking confidently and has outgrown the infant environment, but before they're ready for pre-school, the toddler class provides dynamic activities and an engaging curriculum specifically designed for two and three year old's interests and needs. We encourage self help and social-emotional skill development.
Preschool
Report
Preschool is incredibly important for future academic success. At SCDC we take this responsibility seriously, preparing your children for Kindergarten and beyond by creating dynamic days balanced between imaginative play, physical play, and academic and social learning. For children under five, play is a foundation for creativity, constructive problem solving, self regulation, and social learning.
