After a brief pause in providing child care early on, Children\u2019s Friend developed policies and protocols allowing us to return to safely operating classrooms in stable pods. With daily health screenings, mask-wearing, and enhanced cleaning protocols we have been successfully welcoming children to our sites since June 2020.<\/p>\n<p>At Children\u2019s Friend, experienced degreed teachers and teacher assistants work as a team in each classroom.&nbsp; All of our classrooms are culturally and linguistically responsive and nurses are available on-site to answer any health-related concerns. Additionally, children receive healthy and nutritious meals and snacks approved by the USDA.&nbsp; Our classroom curriculum is designed to promote social-emotional development and ensure school readiness.<\/p>\n<p>We know that childcare is essential for working parents and we are here for you.<\/p>\n<p>We are now enrolling children ages 6 weeks through five.
