If a child lives with approval, he learns to like himself

MSCDC advocates the belief that each child is special and unique. We believe that there are no bad children, only challenging behaviors. Therefore, we try to cultivate a positive self-image in order to help give every child the confidence to try new things and meet life's challenges.

If a child lives with security, she learns to have faith

The environment and curriculum at MSCDC are designed to meet each child’s social, cognitive, physical, emotional,
and developmental needs. One goal we strive for each day is to provide the most caring type of atmosphere possible
for each and every child. Consequently, a child who needs an extra hug because Mom was late to work and the toast
burned will be sure to get one. It is also our goal to promote creativity by offering a wide variety of activities that each child
can experience in his or her own way.
