Childcare

The New Futures School Child Development and Parenting Center provides culturally sensitive parenting education and developmentally appropriate childcare to pregnant and parenting students attending New Futures School.  Children two weeks to three years are eligible to attend the child development and parenting center during the school year. In collaboration with family and community, New Futures provides a network of onsite resources to assist student success.

A child receives care that is individualized and the care of children in a group is child-centered so that children can learn at their own pace.

• A child’s needs are met promptly and consistently to promote a sense of trust that leads to positive social and emotional development.
• A child participates in a developmentally appropriate curriculum that includes activities based on a child’s interests, physical and cognitive abilities.
• A child’s care occurs in a safe and healthy learning environment because caregivers follow prescribed licensing and best practice regulations.
