ZECC has been a part of the Hopkins community since 2001. We are a small facility, licensed for 62 children, with a faith-based mission and a child-centered philosophy. Our planning is intentional, with the whole child in mind. We are next to Burnes Park and are able to utilize the park's greenspace, playground, and the Splash Pad in summer. Our staff turnover is very low and we serve families for many years. We are open year-round Monday through Friday, from 7AM until 5:30PM, although we are closed the nine "major" holidays and the week between Chirstmas and New Year's Day.

Licensed home childcare center providing specialized care. I take the time to know your child and nurture proper growth and development. Featuring 1800 square feet of play space with a separate entrance from the home. I care for 4 children full-day up to 5 years of age with the occasional drop-in after school child. I develop curriculum based on the individual child's needs. We do learning through organized activities as well as play. For infants, that would include singing, tactile exploration, tummy time, etc. As the child grows older, working on language, motor skills, encouraging curiosity and problem solving. I also focus on Kindergarten readiness. I have a degree in education with a minor in speech therapy and have been certified in vision therapy. To provide a well-rounded experience we include music and cooking classes and quarterly field trips.

Each day, caring and attentive teachers provide your child with countless opportunities to grow academically, socially, emotionally and physically in a safe and loving environment. In The Goddard School®'s unique and flexible learning environment, child development is about more than just reaching milestones. It’s about turning everyday encounters into teachable moments, allowing your child’s interests to influence their learning experiences by balancing academic, mental, physical and social-emotional growth.

Our F.L.EX.® Framework (Fun Learning Experience) gives your child the freedom to learn beyond a traditional lesson plan, as teachers incorporate organic, real-life experiences that help little ones navigate valuable teachable moments.

Our school also provides Enrichments to all our families. Kindermusik, Yoga, Portuguese/Spanish, Soccer, Sign Language, and Handwriting without Tears to name a few are all included.

I have materials and a designated area for the older children to use to cut and color, etc. Also, I have some educational computer games which I allow the older children to use occasionally. Children need to be allowed to BE CHILDREN, to play, to explore, and to learn in a natural, loving setting!
