Both of my children have attended ECC since they were babies, one graduated and headed on to elementary school and my younger is in his final year. Our family has appreciated the excellent care our kids have received for nearly nine years. The teachers are warm and caring, and develop strong relationships with the children. Kristy, who has been running ECC for many years as the director, is responsive, attentive and a pleasure to work with.ECC teachers enjoy the work they do, and plan engaging and enriching activities. They do lots of age appropriate activities every day: arts and crafts, singing, reading stories, outside/inside free play, walks, circle time where they focus on letter and number recognition and for the older preschool classes Spanish Circle. There's a good mix of activities and my kids have had fun while developing skills that prepare them well for the transition to kindergarten.I'd highly recommend ECC to any parents looking for daycare or preschool for their kids. They do a fantastic job and create a warm, welcoming and caring environment for the kids and parents alike.

We moved to Claremont in the summer of 2021 and researched quite a few childcare options. We enrolled our son here in fall 2021 and our daughter in fall 2022, and we definitely made the right decision. The Director is very communicative and ensures all parents are informed. The teachers are so invested, kind, friendly, and just absolutely wonderful! Both of our kids look forward to going to school and are excited to tell us about their day when we pick them up. This is such a great community of staff, students, and parents!

The teachers at this school are all amazing and the kids love it there. The staff cares about all of the children at the school to make sure they all feel welcome.

Our son started in the Teddy Bear classroom this fall and we are very happy with our decision. In 4 short months, he has made so many educational advancements all while having fun with his new friends. Most importantly, this is all made possible by his incredible teachers - Teacher Atziri, Teacher Taylor, Teacher Luz and everyone else that helps throughout the day. They could not be more caring, loving and patient with the kids. It's clear to us that these people love their jobs and are so incredibly thankful that we get to benefit from their passion.

Both my sons attended the ECC and thrived there! From infant through preschool, they experienced love and nurture from their teachers. I was also very impressed with the low turnover of staff, who are very dedicated to the kids and the center. We shopped around and found that the ECC had a reasonable cost and a very accommodating schedule for our works hours. You can't go wrong with this consistently accredited program.

My son has been attending CECC for a little over a month and it has been a wonderful experience for us thus far. All of his teachers are so incredibly sweet and loving and I can see it when I drop off and pick him up. I've known a few other families that have had their children attend as well and they have all had positive experiences. I definitely recommend CECC and I'm looking forward to having more of my children attend in the future.

My daughter has been attending ECC for almost a year now and I could not be more grateful for the teachers and the entire organization! Kristy is the person you work out all of the details with and she has always been great at communicating. Full-time tuition is a reasonable price and the kids engage in many activities. I notice my daughter gaining more and more everyday. From sign language, to arts & crafts, to dancing to music, to outside play, they truly do it all! As for the teachers, they have been a joy to get to know and their connection with our daughter is obvious! We mainly have worked with Connie, Lucy, Janine, and Missy who are all amazing, caring, trustworthy individuals. Highly recommend!

My son (now 2) has been going to ECC since he was 7 months old. This is a great place with a nurturing staff who honestly care about the children. They provide age-appropriate learning opportunities through play and arts and crafts. The facility is clean and the teachers are friendly and engaged. I would definitely recommend this facility to others. Thanks for everything ECC!

Our grandson, 2 years old, has been at the center for only a month. Teachers are loving and he has enjoyed the center since the first day. The setting is lovely, calm, plenty of space, playground is large. Located right next to the Claremont Colleges. I highly recommend this center.

In a word, AMAZING. When I began my search for a childcare center, I was nervous. I looked many places, visited many homes and facilities, and interviewed many people. It wasn't until I came across the ECC that I finally felt comfortable and knew that it was going to be the right fit for our family. I had 2 children attend the ECC from ages 1-4. The 6 years that my family was a part of the ECC were great! My kids were happy, I felt comfortable, the teachers and staff were loving and professional. We've only had positive experiences. I would (and do) highly recommend the ECC to anyone who asks.
