The Children’s Center

The Colorado College Children’s Center is committed to providing an on-site, high-quality early care and education program for the children of the CC campus and the local community. A professional and experienced staff creates a warm, loving, developmentally appropriate program for children ages six weeks to six years. The Center is committed to serving each child’s unique social, emotional, cognitive, and physical needs.

The Children’s Center practices a philosophy of emergent curriculum, based on the interests of the children along with the teachers’ combined experience and training in Early Childhood Education. The curriculum encourages hands-on learning and investigation through a wide variety of experiences, and individual responsibility.

The Center operates 12 months a year and participates in the CACFP school lunch program with meals provided by Bon Apetit, the college’s food vender.
