The teachers and staff at Diamond Spring KinderCare Learning Center take pride in nurturing and educating our children.
The vast majority of our teaching staff have their Child Development Associates Credential, Associate's Degrees, and/or Bachelor's Degrees, with the majority of these being in the Early Childhood Educational field.
Our goal is to have all of our teachers to have obtain one of these degrees by the end of 2013.
At the end of the day we want to ensure that every child in our care leaves happy and excited about the day they have had, and are excited to return tomorrow.
