ENGLISH:

The PCCC Child Development Center offers Paterson Residents FREE PRESCHOOL for children that are 3 OR 4 Years old by October 31st. There is also a Private Classroom that is available for non-Paterson residents and children who do not qualify for Paterson Public Schools. The center provides BEFORE AND AFTER CARE and accepts 4C's.

We are a 4 star Grow NJ Kids and NAEYC Accredited School; the center has been accredited by the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) since 2009. Through both of these accreditations, the program is required to meet a high standard of quality in all areas of operation including our classrooms and administration.

We at PCCC Child Development Center believe that all children can develop a passion for learning.  We begin by forming relationships with both the family and children. Once a sense of safety, trust and respect are developed, children can then begin to learn. Through both teacher and child directed activities, the children learn through play and discovery at a pace that is comfortable yet challenging for each individual.

En el Centro de Desarrollo Infantil PCCC creemos que todos los niños pueden desarrollar pasión por el aprendizaje. Comenzamos por establecer relaciones tanto con la familia como con los niños. Una vez que se desarrolla un sentido de seguridad, confianza y respeto, los niños pueden comenzar a aprender. A través de actividades dirigidas tanto por el maestro como por los niños, los niños aprenden a través del juego y el descubrimiento a un ritmo cómodo pero desafiante para cada individuo.
