Preschool in Charlotte, NC 28262
Welcome to the Leslee Lloyd Child Development Center. Our state of the art center has been custom designed to fully meet the child care and educational needs of young children, and to maximize safety and teacher supervision. The infant rooms are shoeless environments where very young children can explore their world in a stimulating and safe way. Our highly skilled Infant and Toddler teachers provide nurturing and love as they gently encourage exploration. The preschool programs are designed to provide not only that same nurturing and support, but also an exciting environment where children can begin to discover the world around them through language, math, science, art, movement and music. The Leslee Lloyd Child Development center is conveniently located in Charlotte’s University area and is committed to providing families of the community with high-quality childcare.

The Bright Horizons curriculum is based on the key principle that children learn best through active, hands-on exploration. With caring, well-trained, and experienced teachers as guides, our curriculum encourages discovery within a stimulating environment that can nurture each childs curiosity, potential, and growth.
At Bright Horizons, we regard “How smart is this child?” as less important than “How is THIS child smart?” As such, our teachers are mentors who plan and adapt intentional learning experiences for children based on a specific group of students and their individual child development needs.
The World at Their Fingertips is our unique early education curriculum created to foster individual development at every age and stage. Its objectives are based on attaining developmental achievements in all areas: social-emotional, physical, language, and cognitive/intellectual. Recognizing that no two children develop at the same pace, our curriculum provides a framework for highly individualized and flexible learning experiences. Curriculum-based activities, projects, and learning centers keep children engaged while they build important skills to grow.
