Child-Care and Preschool Programs Offered
It’s safe. It’s convenient. It’s affordable. It’s staffed with professionals, and the kids really enjoy being there. These are the attributes that attract many Santa Clarita Valley parents with young children to the Center for Early Childhood Education, located on the park-like College of the Canyons campus.
The center offers care and education for children 12 months old until they begin kindergarten and follow the College of the Canyons academic calendar.
- The center’s normal hours are:
- Full Day: 8:15 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
- Half Day: 8:45 to 11:45 a.m., or 12:30 to 3:30 p.m.
“I am very proud of the services we offer at the center,” said Cam Valenzuela, site director. “We are a quality program available for your child while you are in school, working or if you feel your child is ready for a pre-school experience. We also have funding for tuition if you qualify.”
Among the mix of programs offered are morning, afternoon and full-day programs with two-, three- and five-day options. The center has immediate openings in the afternoon programs for 3- and 4-year-olds, for fall semester, which begins Aug. 18. Added advantages offered by the College of the Canyons center are small classes with a low teacher/child ratio.
For more information on the toddler program, financial assistance and all of the programs offered at the Family Studies and Early Childhood Education Center, call (661) 362-3541.
