At NPCCC, we believe each child is a unique individual.  We strive to provide a loving, nurturing and creative environment for children.  We are sensitive to their social, emotional, intellectual and physical needs.  We provide developmentally appropriate programs that focus on the process of learning while also helping them to enjoy many other successful experiences.  We encourage not just learning, but also the love of learning.

We believe in providing a physical environment that is safe, clean, healthy and child friendly.  Our classrooms are equipped with security cameras for the protection of the children and staff.  Classrooms are arranged to offer challenging play and learning choices at a range of developmental levels.

The strength of our program is the experience, expertise and dedication of our staff.  We support the teachers with training, resources and the freedom to create a unique learning environment.  We provide many opportunities for the teachers to share ideas and grow professionally.  Our teachers create a caring and nurturing atmosphere that fosters each child's creativity and positive self-image.

We believe in positive methods of discipline.  We establish consistent and appropriate limits to help children function in their world.  Our programs are designed to develop in children a sense of independence and responsibility.  We strive to strengthen each child's own cultural identity, while instilling a respect for others.

Parents are the most significant adults in a child's life.  We strive to create mutual respect between parents and teachers - a partnership for the benefit of the child.  We encourage daily communication between parents and the Center staff.  Our doors are open to parents at all times.

Our Center values people: the children in our care, their parents and our employees.  We continually work to earn the trust placed in us.  We strive each day to  provide the best early childhood education services possible.
