My 2.5-year-old son goes to CELC, and he is absolutely thriving in the caring, attentive environment he is in. What I love most about CELC is the value they place on the importance of the natural world for children. All kids spend at least a couple of hours outside each day, in the rain, snow, or sun! I also appreciate their Reggio Emilia approach, which emphasizes free-play, wonder, and curiosity. At CELC, they do not use electronic toys but rather give children the loose parts they need to be creative on their own! The teachers at CELC are fantastic, knowledgeable, and nurturing individuals who are super responsive and have your child's best interest at heart. At the end of each month, we receive a newsletter complete with photographs and summaries of the month's activities, and at the start of each week, we receive a lesson plan for that coming week. CELC is extremely professional, and their curriculum for toddlers is both beautiful and excellent. I couldn't be happier with my son's daycare!
I had the pleasure of Moving this Place the last few days. And I have to give a shout out to a group of the most caring teachers and staff I have met in a long time. To the All the Wonderful ladies that work here. The kindness and Hearts of gold I witnessed all day. The patience and Virtues I saw in them all was amazing. It was a pleasure to help you all!! Thanks again for the Kind words!
We have been sending our children to this wonderful school for a cumulative of 5 years now. The director and staff are wonderful human beings and care providers! They not only take time to get to know all the children, they love them, teach them, and care for them. I am a very Hands-On parent and would do not entrust my children to many people. Clinton Early Learning Center has been a blessing to our kids and our family. My children have formed many healthy relationships with their peers and the teachers during these very impressionable years. Their affiliation with Hamilton College holds them to a high standard of care. The board of directors are also very involved. The director devotes her not only working hours to the center but her non-working hours as well. She is extremely thorough and always advocating for the children using proven methods of early childhood development. Awesome place!
It's difficult to express in words just how fantastic (and essential) the Clinton Early Learning Center has been for our family. Wonderful staff who not only care deeply for the kids, but work tirelessly to provide them with supportive, fun-filled, exploratory environment every day. Honestly, if I could have dreamed up a place for my little one to spend her days, it would be hard to have it compare to the CELC.
My daughter attends the pre-K program twice a week. She wishes she could go more often and looks forward to going to school every week. This is a wonderful program with lots of outdoor based play and learning through play. I highly recommend the Clinton Early Learning Center.
