History
Established in 1980.
Our Center was established as a community service here at Fairplex. We have served a diverse population of children and families during our history.
In 1980 we were one of the first early childhood programs in Southern California to offer a fully inclusion program for children with special needs. We know that children benefit from helping one another, and providing the least restrictive environment where all children can learn from one another.
In 1991 we became offical partners with the University of La Verne, and we combined our center with the existing university center. We proudly continue our partnership with the University of La Verne, providing intern settings for the bachelor and master level students. We collaborate with the child development faculty on elements such as curriculum and our educational program. Many times we have families come to our center who they attended as children themselves. It is truly a center that is focused on children and their families.
