The mission of The Booth Memorial Child Development Center is to create a learning community that allows each of its members to flourish and thrive! We provide a loving, secure, and developmentally appropriate environment, that nurtures, cares, and offers warmth and guidance to each child.

The Booth Memorial Child Development Center believes that all families have the right to the highest quality early childhood education, regardless of socio-economic factors. We believe that accessible childcare is necessary and essential. Our goal is to provide a curriculum that is full of learning opportunities and nurture children’s natural curiosity about the world around them. We teach children the skills that will help them succeed in school and throughout the rest of their lives.
