Program Philosophy

§      Children’s program is planned to nurture the whole child (social/emotional, cognitive, language and physical development) through an integrated curriculum. Children are guided through learning experiences appropriate to their individual capabilities and readiness.

§      As a lab school for child development, CDC is a training facility that provides an environment for college students to observe, interact, and implement the ideas and theories that are presented as part of the college program.

§      As a parent participation program, parents enroll in a specially designed child development course that includes a lab component.  During lab participation, parents have an opportunity to observe children and gain an understanding of children's readiness and interaction skills. Interaction with other parents in the program provides them with a support group. Parents also have the opportunity to use their lab classes as a part of a child development career ladder.

Infants & Toddlers

§      Infant & Toddler Center serves children ages six weeks to 36 months

§      Philosophy:

·       Infants and toddlers need an environment that is stimulating, challenging, consistent, and trustworthy

·       Infants and toddlers are allowed to develop at their own pace

·       When infants and toddlers are able to trust appropriate caregivers, to feel safe in their environments and to freely explore materials, they become competent individuals

Preschoolers

§      Preschool program serves children ages 2.5 to 5 years

§      Program provides a balance between structured and unstructured activities.

·       Structure may be provided either by the teachers or instructional assistants working with small groups of children on special projects or with materials in the learning centers.

·       Open-ended questioning leads to critical thinking and is essential for children growing up in a world of constant change and new technology with many problems to be solved.
