Philosophy
The Enfield Child Development Center provides a comfortable, positive, and family-supportive environment where children feel safe and secure. The program’s goal is to nurture and foster the children’s physical, emotional, social, cognitive and nutritional needs, as well as their educational needs. Each child’s diverse background and life experiences are recognized and appreciated.
Families can feel valued for their input and their dreams for their children. Staff are valued for their vision, their delight in children, their skill, heart, knowledge, a commitment to families, and an ability to play. Children are given maximum opportunities to express themselves in a creative manner. Parents, as well as caregivers, benefit by aiding each other with information and resources to facilitate the healthy development of the child placed in our care. We cherish what we learn from each other.
