As Greenville’s premier 5-star child care organization, Children’s World Learning Center is trusted by families across eastern North Carolina. Our child care programs in Greenville, NC provide a safe, engaging, and family-centered environment that supports each child’s unique developmental path.
The Creative Curriculum is used in all CWLC classrooms.
Teachers can directly communicate to families through the Parent Engagement App. This system is designed to let parents know highlights throughout the day such as mealtimes, nap time schedules, diapering / potty training, and/or photos and fun snapshots that are precious keepsakes.
Infants can begin our infant classrooms at 6 weeks old.
