  • One of the center's many features is to make sure that the staff and the children are safe at all times. We have a keypad entrance that requires a code. The Allentown Parking Authority monitors the parking lot at random times throughout the day. The playgrounds are all fenced-in, and we have ramp access through our back door which also requires a code to enter. Once inside, the center follows strict guidelines to ensure that all children and staff are safe at all times.
