University Child Care
Center in Baltimore, MD 21252
Greetings! Welcome to University Child Care.
Our teachers work to facilitate “active learning” in a developmentally appropriate environment for young children, and their parents.
Our goal is to promote physical, cognitive, linguistic, nutritional, social and emotional development in an environment which prides inself on the caring and nurturing of our children, parents and student staff. We also focus on supporting the development and parenting efforts of our student parents whom we attempt to assist, whenever appropriate, with their parental responsibilities.
You want the best for your child, the best possible early education. University Child Care offers exceptional care for children 2, 3, and 4 years of age.
The Center’s program model is that of a developmentally-oriented nursery school,with a Pre Kindergarten Program and, the wrap-around of day care-type hours. As of Fall, 2007, we no longer offered our Kindergarten Program. We will, inevitably, have some children who will be five years of age after September 1 and not be able to meet The Maryland State Department of Education’s cut-off date of September 1 for entering Kindergarten. We will, for those children, within reason, offer developmentally appropriate programming within the context of our mission which is that of offering a PreK Program.

The Center “broadens” its children by exposing them “naturally” in social settings/classroom settings to other children from around our world. Children in our setting have an opportunity which few children in the area have to interact with children from many cultures. Many children in the center are bilingual. In addition to English, children will learn that people speak other languages, like their friends do. You will hear children trying out different phrases which their friends speak. Ideas, languages, customs, foods are being shared in our Center. Children grow up here knowing that people don’t all eat the same types of foods, sing the same songs, wear the same types of clothes, call their dogs “barkings” by the same names/sounds etc.
