At the Childrens Learning Center our first priority is establishing a safe nurturing and responsive environment where childrens physical needs are met and they feel psychologically secure. We believe that high quality early care and education fosters the physical social emotional language and cognitive development of young children. Reciprocal relationships with each childs family are an essential element of quality. We value and celebrate each familys unique composition and their cultural ethnic and linguistic background. Positive relationships among all children and adults promote each childs sense of individual worth and belonging to a community.
We believe children are active learners who construct an understanding of the world around them through play and exploration of their environment. Teachers support and enhance childrens learning by providing the time materials and relationships children need. Children learn at varying rates and in different ways. They also have different methods of representing what they know.
We believe adults are also active learners. We are committed to supporting the education of Pennsylvania College of Technology students who are learning about children and families. This is best accomplished by providing them with opportunities to work directly with children and families under the guidance of professional educators who serve as role models and mentors in an exemplary early care education setting. We believe that childrens development and learning are enhanced by their experiences with the Penn College community.
