A Program of Excellence

The San Jose City College Child Development Center is an on-campus laboratory school that provides a high quality, developmentally appropriate toddler and preschool program for young children, who are between the ages of 22 months to 5 years. Our teachers facilitate learning in the areas of early literacy, math, science, writing, art, music, independence, social competence, multicultural appreciation, and physical/motor skill competence, and prepare children for success in kindergarten. The San Jose City College Child Development Center is also a laboratory school where students in the Early Childhood Education program at SJCC conduct observations, student-teach, and receive mentorship and guidance from our excellent team of certificated teachers.

Excellence in Teaching

All children receive a high-quality education because they are taught by a professional, experienced, and talented team of teachers. Our teachers hold professional credentials in Early Childhood Education and have many years of teaching experience in the ECE profession. They are dedicated to providing a safe, educational, fun, and caring environment for all children.
