Early Childhood Center
Welcome to Three Rivers 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.

Our Purpose

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.
