TENDER YEARS ACADEMY CENTER operates on the premise that children are unique, special and should feel accepted and cared for by people they can trust. We accomplish this through providing programs that promote cognitive, emotional and physical development and maximize the independence and enhance the abilities and potential of young children; providing individualized quality services to children and their families; providing an anti-bias family centered program to ensure each family’s priorities; ensuring that concerns and cultures are addressed and incorporated into each child’s daily activities; and providing a naturalistic environment where each child’s overall development is enhanced and enriched: include children as active participants in their learning experiences.
