About James Place Child Development Center
James' Place Child Development Center is a highly professional Early Learning Center providing care to children ages 1 month - 5 years of age. With a high staff to child ratio, teachers are able to develop close personal relationships with the children and the families. Our curriculum is multifaceted and scaffolded across age & developmental levels. Our location in the downtown area affords opportunities for creating teachable moments through our walking program. Children participate weekly in story hour at the local Children's library program.
Our Values
We believe that children thrive in the context of caring, supportive relationships with consistent adults in their lives. We believe that learning is a fluid and ongoing process that never ends. We believe that children learn best through a process of personal discovery under the direction of caring mentors. We believe that children thrive when taught to make their own decisions and accept the consequences thereof. We believe in inclusiveness, interpersonal communication and conflict resolution. We believe all children can succeed and therefore have a no expulsion policy.
