The Early Childhood Center (ECC) is a non-profit
program, founded in 1945 by a group of dedicated
parents from the Claremont Congregational Church,
now known as Claremont United Church of Christ,
who identified a need for a preschool program that
was different than others in the Claremont area.
These parents imagined a preschool where their
cooperative efforts could create a stimulating and
exciting learning environment for their children.
They created a school where parents could play a
direct role in their child’s education!
Today, the Early Childhood Center is one of a
handful of Parent Participation preschools and
infant programs in the Claremont area. We
continue to carry on this tradition of excellence.
The Early Childhood Center embraces a
developmental philosophy of learning, which
supports and respects the child as he/she is. ECC
supports the knowledge that children learn best
through play and hands-on experiences. Through
the guidance of carefully selected teachers, each
child will have the opportunity to explore and
enrich his/her world socially, emotionally,
physically and intellectually toward optimal
growth.
