Programs Offered We offer a variety of programs for children ages six weeks through
preschool, including special needs children. Our programs are in
two categories: Infant/Toddler and Preschool. We define Infants as
those children six weeks to 12 months. From 12 to
36 months, the children are in our Toddler program.
Children three years through five years are enrolled in our
Preschool program.
Infant/Toddler
Daily interactions with the children occur through direct
conversation, story reading, play, and other activities. Staff
serve as facilitators in the play process, encouraging where
needed and intervening when appropriate. Our classrooms are
designed for active exploration in a child-safe setting.
Developmental milestones such as first feedings, toileting, and
walking are handled on an individual basis. We serve as partners
with parents in achieving these goals. We welcome and encourage
your involvement in your child's stay at Casitas Jose and Maria.
Preschool
Learning centers are set up throughout our classrooms to encourage
hands-on learning. Daily activities in math, science, art, music,
cooking, and dramatic play are just some of the areas your child
will explore. We use methods of observation and recording to chart
your child's progress and accomplishments throughout the year. Carondelet Childcare Centers are D.E.S. certified.
Carondelet Childcare Centers are regulated by the Arizona
Department of Health Services located at 400 W. Congress, Suite

available upon request at the licensing office.
