About Us
James’ Place Child Development Center provides an educationally rich environment where children will grow developmentally while in the care of loving professionals during the hours that their parents are at work.
James’ Place programs provide opportunities for development of the child as a whole person. Children will be nurtured physically, emotionally, intellectually and as spiritual beings. They will be provided with experiences that foster physical wellness, self esteem, tolerance, respect for diversity, competence and mastery, emotional development, assumption of personal responsibility, intellectual development and the ability to live in harmony with others.
