GROWING TOGETHER THROUGH EVERY STAGE OF EARLY CHILDHOOD.
Children's Community Development Center
Welcome
At Children's Community Development Center (CCDC), we believe childhood is something to be celebrated, not rushed.
Every day, children are given the time, space, and support to explore their world with joy, curiosity, and confidence. Through meaningful relationships, play-based learning, and authentic experiences, we create an environment where children feel known, families feel connected, and every stage of childhood is valued for exactly what it is.
For generations, CCDC has partnered with families to create a community where children grow not only as learners, but as compassionate, capable, and confident members of the world around them.
The CCDC Experience
Rather than simply preparing children for the next stage, we focus on helping them fully experience the one they are in.
Our community is grounded in four values that guide every classroom, every relationship, and every decision we make.
Joy
We believe joyful children become confident learners. Laughter, celebration, and genuine delight are woven throughout each day, creating a community where children love coming to school.
Wonder
Curiosity drives learning. Children are encouraged to ask questions, investigate ideas, take thoughtful risks, and explore the world with all of their senses.
Identity
Every child deserves to be seen, heard, and valued for exactly who they are. We celebrate individuality while helping children develop confidence, empathy, and a strong sense of belonging.
Community
Relationships are at the heart of CCDC. Children, families, educators, and alumni together create a community where everyone contributes, everyone belongs, and everyone grows together.
Why Childhood Matters
Childhood is not simply preparation for what comes next. It is a remarkable stage of life worthy of being experienced fully, joyfully, and at its own pace.
At CCDC, we believe exceptional early childhood education begins with relationships. Every child deserves to feel emotionally and physically safe, deeply known, and genuinely valued. Every family deserves to feel welcomed into a community where questions are encouraged, ideas are heard, and partnerships are built through trust.
Every family who visits CCDC is personally welcomed by our Director, who knows every child, every classroom, and every corner of our community. We believe meaningful relationships begin with the very first conversation and continue throughout a family's journey at CCDC.
We are proud to be a school where children experience the joy of childhood every day, where behavior is understood as communication, conflicts become opportunities for learning, and play serves as the foundation for discovery, creativity, and lifelong learning.
Why Families Choose CCDC
Choosing an early childhood program is about much more than selecting a school. It is about finding a place where your child will be deeply known, your family will feel welcomed, and childhood will be celebrated every day.
From our warm and welcoming classrooms to our expansive outdoor learning environments, every aspect of CCDC reflects our belief that childhood should be filled with meaningful relationships, authentic experiences, and opportunities for joyful discovery.
We invite you to visit, meet our community, and experience firsthand what makes CCDC such a special place to grow.
