Welcome to the
WMU Children's Place
Learning Center
If you ask family members raising any child to describe that child, you will likely find they each describe the child differently. Even siblings from the same family are unique to themselves in their personalities and stages of development. This is a critical point for families to consider when looking for child care, and a significant difference when comparing WMU Children's Place Learning Center to other child care centers in the Kalamazoo area.
The WMU Children's Place Learning Center is a
NAEYC accredited early childhood learning center that offers flexible child care options for students, faculty, staff and community members.The center partners with the
WMU College of Education to provide high quality, professional care appropriate to each child's development.
The Children's Place has a distinctive philosophy in child care, with a focus on:
- Individualized child-initiated learning
- Hands-on experience
- Personal and social interaction
- Movement and physical development
