At Lakeview Child Center, we provide a loving and caring environment where every child is actively involved in the learning process.
The teachers and staff prepare exciting learning centers that stimulate a child's sense of exploration and discovery.

Our integrated, thematic curriculum stresses hands-on, child-initiated activities which stimulate and encourage the development of language, cognitive, physical, emotional and social skills.
These activities, which are both age appropriate and individualized, help children develop a healthy self concept and a feeling of accomplishment.
