Welcome to Child Development Center @ LA Mission College
"Helping to build the foundation for a better future." Program Philosphy The Los Angeles Mission College, Campus Child Development Center begins with the belief that children actively participate in their own learning and that each child is special and unique. The Center believes that each child has his/her individual needs, feelings, backgrounds, and each must be responded and respected. The Center believes that education of the whole child is important and the teacher's responsibility is to provide opportunities for the child to flourish socially, physically, emotionally, and cognitively. The Center provides a positive, safe, and reassuring environment for the child to have authentic and concrete experiences which enhance the child's self-esteem, help the child acquire, practice and master basic daily living skills, and strengthen his/her pre-readiness skills as the child demonstrates physical and emotional readiness. The Center follows an emergent eclectic curriculum that fosters growth and development in young children and practices a non-sexist and multicultural approach. Child Care Services Child must be between the agest of 2.9 and 5 years old and fully potty trained. We are a State-funded program and a Campus Lab School. Therefore, first priority is given to the students of the college. We also accept students that are receiving government aide and assistance. Students will either qualify by income or may need o pay a fee. Community applicants will be considered until all students have been acommodated. All families are considered for services every new academic school year. The academic school year begins in the fall semester and end after the summer semester. Infant/Toddler Care The Los Angeles Mission College Family Child Care Homes Network consists of at least 30 licensed family child care homes throughout the San Fernando Valley. FCCHN provides infant/toddler child care services for the students of the college. The qualification is the same as that of the child development center.
