The Children's Place is a part of The Ocean Park Childcare Foundation, a foundation dedicated to providing children of all socioeconomic backgrounds with quality early childhood education. At the Children's Place we feel that children learn best through play and exploration. We are a child development program where differences between cultures are valued and celebrated. We are committed to creating a nurturing environment where each child is encouraged to identify and express their feelings, solve problems by using their verbal skills and enhance self-esteem through exploration of their interest and ideas. Curriculum is a reflection of our philosophy and values; it is both flexible and individualized. Experiences are planned with the understanding that through play, children build the foundations for further education.
