持牌及认可

The CFDC is licensed by the State of New Mexico Early 孩子hood 教育 and Care Department and is accredited by the National Association for the 教育 of Young 孩子ren (NAEYC). 

幼儿保育及早期教育服务

The CFDC currently houses three different programs for children 6 weeks of age through preschool. 孩子ren are enrolled in the programs for five days a week from 7:30 a.m. – 5:30 p.m. Each of our programs is based on the assumption that children learn best when they are actively involved with their environment and free to explore without fear of mistakes. The learning environment emphasizes social development and cooperation with others as well as a variety of stimulating activities for young children. We believe that children are inventive and creative in the ways they understand the world, and that they grow and develop by sharing ideas with others and by exploring questions raised by caring adults. We arrange the environment to provide structure and the schedule to provide consistency. These enable a child to develop a sense of mastery over the environment. Above all, we believe that each child is a unique person with special things to offer. 我们与孩子的互动反映了这些信念.
