Family Development Center (FDC) offers childcare for infants and toddlers from birth to six years old who have been identified as having any chronic health conditions that require on-site nurse monitoring.
While benefiting from childcare services, their health is also monitored daily by our on-site, registered nurse. Their developmental needs are assessed regularly and care is provided as needed. Major areas of development that are assessed include social, emotional, cognitive, speech and language, self-help and fine/gross motor skills.
FDC believes that there are several essential components in helping children with special needs to reach their potential in all developmental areas including:
- Early intervention
- Inclusion-based environment
- Parent participation
- Structured, consistent and nurturing environment
- Goals developed to meet the individual needs and interest of each child
Eligible children attend FDC’s MOLERA program full-time, five days a week. The program is open from 7:30 a.m. – 4:30 p.m.
