Red Clover Children's Center

Red Clover Children's Center Red Clover Children's Center is a child care center for infants and toddlers in Middlebury, VT.

At the Red Clover Children's Center (RCCC) our philosophy is that play is children’s work. We are committed to the care of infants and toddlers that respects diverse culture, lifestyles, preferences, abilities, learning styles and needs of children and families in a safe and healthy environment. At RCCC, we believe that children develop physically, cognitively, socially and emotionally through pla

y-based learning and our teachers will nurture and encourage the developmental growth of each child through observation and interactive teaching. The role of our teachers is to be secure and supportive mentors who form empathetic connections with each child and our teachers will guide them to their potential while setting healthy limits. We provide children with classrooms that are comfortable and homelike where they are safe and free to explore. The RCCC will be housed within the Congregational Church of Middlebury, United Church of Christ (MiddUCC), but the church will not oversee or manage the RCCC. However, the RCCC Director as well as staff and Board members will coordinate and communicate closely with MiddUCC leadership to ensure a positive and productive sharing of the mutual space so that both entities’ needs are met.

Zoie enjoys working with all age groups at the center, but the infant room is her favorite place! This opportunity will help her explore different facets of early childhood education and develop her skills in childcare.
