About this preschool

Miramar College Child Development Center is part of the San Diego Community College District and provides high-quality educational programming for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. The center operates as a lab-teaching facility for college students while serving community children.

Philosophy
The children's program is planned and implemented to nurture each child socially, emotionally, cognitively, linguistically, and physically through integrated practices and curriculum. Children are guided through learning experiences appropriate to their individual capabilities and readiness, with opportunities for challenge and mastery, peer interactions, and exploration through language and literacy, creative activities, science, math, sensory experiences, and motor activities. Children learn best in an environment with consistent limits where they are allowed to explore and consider choices, leading to self-direction, independence, and responsibility.
Ages served
Infants, toddlers, and preschoolers (ages 3-4 for State Preschool Program, under 3 for General Child Care)
