The Port Washington Children’s Center was established in 1977 as a non-profit, non-sectarian childcare center. Our center is licensed by New York State Office of Children and Family Services. based out of The Landmark Building, 232 MAIN STREET, PORT WASHINGTON, New York, United States. At the Port Washington Children’s Center we believe that young children learn through play as they explore the world around them. With the guidance of nurturing, experienced teachers, children engage in developmentally appropriate hands-on experiences building their knowledge of the world around them. Teachers develop their curriculum based on the interests of the children in their classes, creating rich, meaningful learning environments. Receptive and expressive language is developed through books, songs, listening games and dramatic play. Teachers encourage children’s emerging interests in writing. Creative expression is also encouraged through art, music and dance. We encourage social interaction which allows children to establish positive feelings about themselves and others.
