About Us
Clarian Place Child Care & Learning Center
Clarian Place Child Care & Learning Center in Carlstadt thrives on its commitment to prepare young children for life-long learning in a safe, nurturing environment. We are dedicated to providing a fun, educational place where through practical, progressive activities young children can learn and grow.
Our educational plans are designed with themes and teaching materials that help our teachers provide the skills children need for success when they enter school; however, they are flexible enough to meet each child’s unique needs and personality.
Most importantly, we are dedicated to working together with parents to help their children become self-assured, inquisitive learners.
