Our School:
Classes focus on discovery and exploration of art, music, science, and physical education while respecting the growth of each child. Children have the opportunity to explore two themed rooms and a play yard, and also help care for our turtle and guinea pigs.
NCCP is a strong and vibrant community. Many families build supportive friendships that last for a lifetime. Parents enjoy parent education discussion groups and are exposed to a variety of parenting techniques and choices.
Our Mission:
We are a diverse community of families learning together in a cooperative environment. We work together to honor all opinions, ideas and differences. We strive to build our children’s self-esteem and social skills through play and exploration. We foster our members’ growth and acceptance through education and peer support.
Our Goals:
Our goal is to help build strong, loving, and productive individuals through teaching families good communication skills and positive self-esteem. We strive to meet this goal by:
- Growing in a positive direction with our children and families
- Creating an open, safe, and supportive environment for exploring and learning
- Building supportive and loving friendships

Our Philosophy:
