The Moore Child Development Center/Strong Beginnings Pre-Kindergarten at Carlisle Barracks believes that every child has value and must be treated with dignity and respect. We strive to provide a safe and caring environment that will foster the social, emotional, physical, and creative development of children.

Features

Curriculum based on the "Creative Curriculum" for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. All programs are age appropriate and based on developmental stages of children. Parent participation is encouraged in order to make our developmental program a success.
Lesson plans and curriculum based on individual child's needs.
Open-door policy. Parents are invited to come and visit anytime during the day.
Outside play area divided into separate areas for each age-group. Children go for walks and visit various areas of Carlisle Barracks.
Field trips are planned for our older groups.

A few of our objectives are:

Learning Environment - indoor and outdoor learning to encourage play and exploration.

Creative - to promote children to use their imagination and provide activities that encourage the use of the five senses.

Social - to provide an environmental experience to help children develop social skills, feelings, and respect for others.
