North Bay Children's Center, McDowell Preschool

Our program focuses on school-readiness, fostering self-sufficiency and promoting health and wellness. Our objective is to ensure that all children, particularly our most vulnerable, have access to critical, high-quality, early learning experiences that build the foundation for life long success. In addition to laying the foundation for later academic proficiency, NBCC was among the first early childhood education providers to recognize that nutrition education has a place in the daily curriculum of a child care environment. NBCC's award winning Garden of Eatin' program is creating an awareness among children that learning about what you eat is as important as knowing one's letters and numbers.
