When
KYCC opened its Children's Center in 2004, our mission
was clear: to provide affordable quality childcare for
our Koreatown community. We envisioned a program that
would allow children to make their own choices, that would
nurture their creativity and that would give them opportunities
to explore interests that are hands-on and meaningful.
Our program focuses on the whole child, recognizing there
are very many components which add up to making up a successful
and happy person. Social skills, emotional balance, healthy
and active lifestyles as well as becoming an effective
learner are all important areas of growth. In addition,
our program shares a philosophy of respect for other cultures,
a sense of community involvement, and an appreciation
for nature. We believe in striving towards excellence
as well as cultivating a lifelong love of learning.
Our Children's Center is a division of Koreatown Youth
and Community Center. For more detailed information on
our Academic, Youth Development, Clinical, Small Business
and Environmental units, please visit the KYCC
