Tender Years Child Care Center, Elizabeth City

Tender Years, operates on the premise that children are unique, special and should feel accepted and cared for by people they can trust. We believe that children learn from experiences with people of all ages, races, religious beliefs and physical abilities. We challenge children with opportunities for creative thinking and self-directed activities. Our curriculum encompasses each child’s physical, social, emotional, cognitive and creative development. Children are stronger and happier if their growth and development take place with a balance of structured and developmentally appropriate choices. At Tender Years, the process of interaction and well-defined boundaries and routines, result in learning. Ultimately, the opportunities and structure provided at our centers will help foster positive self concepts in our children. A child who can like and trust him/herself can reach out to others and can face new and challenging situations with assurance of success throughout life. Programs at Tender Years Childcare Center have been designed for your child to acquire a rich and rewarding experience that will serve as a solid foundation for their future. Because each child has unique and individual needs, we aim to encourage them to learn and practice effective problem solving skills enabling the development of appropriate behavior that is essential to success. There is no better way of encouraging wholesome personalities than through accumulation of successes. Therefore, success has been integrated into our program for every child.
