A major part of our faculty, staff, and students are also parents to young children and seek convenient, high quality child care. If a parent has the motivation to attend classes or build a career at our university, we have the ability to help them to achieve that by offering a child care center. We can help encourage parents to become productive members of society and provide for their child’s future.
Benefits
Offering an on-campus child care facility could have many benefits for the students, faculty, staff, and the college as a whole.
For faculty, staff, and students with children:
A safe child care center on campus would reduce a major stress for parents
Parents would have the option to check on their child or visit them during the day
An on campus child care center would provide convenience for parents, eliminating the need for parents to commute to and from a child care facility
Parents are assured that the college child care center is open on any day that college classes are conducted, even when public child care facilities close for holidays or other …show more content…
We will provide child care service for fifty-one children from the age of infancy to four years old. Children will be separated into four different age groups and cared for accordingly. Infants will be nurtured and delicately cared for by a very mindful and devoted staff. Research shows that proper child care has a large positive impact on a child’s language, pre-math skills, self-control, sociability, and cooperative play. Through this program, we hope to help children flourish with positive characteristics by planning daily educational and social activities for each age group. Children of age will also be given indoor and outdoor play and recreational time. Child care services will be offered during the day time hours of 7:30 A.M. until 5:30 P.M. on each day that college classes are conducted. Parents of infants will be required to bring breast milk, formula, or baby food daily. Our program will provide three healthy, well-balanced meals per day for toddlers and pre-school aged children. Children will be given a snack at 9:30 A.M., lunch at 12:00 P.M., and a second snack at 3:00 P.M. (breakfast will not be provided). A thirty minute nap time will begin daily at 11:00
