 50+ YEARS OF CARING FOR CHILDREN!!!

 

Child Development Council began serving children in 1972 and has remained committed to the care and development of children in NEPA.

 

From our beginnings as a pilot project for preschool care, we have grown to serve infants, toddlers, preschoolers and school age children in numerous locations. We are licensed by the State of Pennsylvania and are now accredited through the Keystone STARS program. We are a partner with Head Start as well as Tunkhannock and Hazleton School Districts. Our programs are known for their excellent care, spotless record on State review and staff retention. Our former children now bring their children to our centers

The Council Centers are accredited through the Pennsylvania Keystone Stars. The Stars standards promote excellence in early learning programs. Children who attend a high quality early learning program are:

√ Kindergarten ready!

√ Able to perform better in school

√ More likely to attend college and obtain a better job
