About

Belmont Shore Children's Center offers a full-time developmental, play-based program where children take part in weekly themes that include art, music, science, cooking, nutrition, socialization, critical thinking, community, multicultural awareness, STEAM, and language arts skills. Teachers at the program actively engage with children in child-directed play, caregiving, and teacher-inspired activities within a predictable and stable daily schedule. The program also includes a Kindergarten Readiness Program in the Pre-Kindergarten classrooms and strongly encourages parents to volunteer and participate in their child’s school experience.

• Ages: 18 months–6 years old
• Schedule: 7:00am to 5:30pm Monday to Friday

The program’s mission states that it focuses on experiences that allow children to learn, create, and discover, with an emphasis on social and emotional strength, self-esteem, initiative, exploration, imagination, creativity, problem-solving, and appreciation for differences in personalities, abilities, and appearances. The mission also notes that the curriculum and highly qualified staff are intended to form an essential base for later cognitive learning and to offer an environment for growth and discovery. The teachers are described as highly educated with deep expertise in early childhood education and preschool curriculum. According to one parent testimonial from Mr. Ken, the preschool has compassionate teachers who helped prepare his son for kindergarten while keeping him interested in learning and reinforcing manners, respect, and empathy.
