Welcome to Three Rivers Community College Early Childhood Learning Center. We look forward to serving the needs of both you and your child/children. Our Center was created to provide child care and learning services for children of students, faculty, staff and members of the community during their class time or work hours. The purpose of our Center is to provide quality care and nurturing to children in a clean, safe, attractive, and stimulating environment with planned activities for age-appropriate growth and stimulation. It is our intention that this warm nurturing environment will stimulate your child’s physical, emotional, social, and intellectual growth. We also provide opportunities for practicums, labs, and observations for students studying in the fields of elementary education, early childhood education, psychology, and nursing.

Our Center is licensed by the Missouri Department of Health Bureau of Child Care Safety and Licensure, and is in compliance with the rules and regulations set forth by this agency. We serve children ages 2-5, Monday through Friday from 7:30 A.M. until 5:30 P.M. A non-refundable enrollment fee of $15 per family is due on or before the child’s first day of attendance. Our fees are $2.15 per hour up to five hours of care, or $14 per day for five or more hours of care.

We encourage everyone to visit our Center, regardless of what your interest may be. Clara (Ann) Price, our assistant director, and I look forward to the opportunity of visiting with parents and students and assessing how we might best serve their individual needs.

Director of the TRCC Early Childhood Learning Center
