The Mary Johnson Childrens Center is amazing. Everyday I'm so grateful to be there. The staff is friendly and professional. They know their stuff, and they are teaching my child and educating me as a parent. Their meals and kitchen staff should get a raise! The food is so amazing and my kiddos openness to new food has expanded exponentially

“I still cannot express how touched I am/ we are that you guys made a safe food space for Emlyn. I sent this photo to her grandparents and got several tearful messages back about how moved they all were to see her at a table full of food and being able to be empowered and independent. Infinitely grateful for the love and support you all show our little Emlyn every day!”

We Believe
That parents are the experts on their children
That teachers are collaborators, researchers and nurturers who are dedicated to supporting children and parents.
In the extraordinary capability and intelligence of children
In children’s ability to construct their own knowledge.
