Children & Families
Early Care and Education Center
At the Early Care and Education Center we know that early childcare takes a community of collaborators. We believe that by providing a supportive environment children will grow and learn together. This is why we work to build a strong community between our students, teachers, volunteers and families. With our connection to departments across campus, our facility provides a safe learning environment with practice led by research.
"Children’s interests are key to planning curriculum. When children are excited about
a topic, they become engaged in learning. When children invest themselves in the curriculum,
the teacher becomes the facilitator providing the students with activities and experiences
that assist them in constructing knowledge about the topic." Linda Tanner - Lead Teacher
