The BOCES Circle of Friends Child Care Center provides a safe, secure and educationally appropriate program for children from 6 weeks to 5 years old. The center is conveniently located on the BOCES main campus at 435 Glenwood Road, Binghamton.

What Makes Us Special?

Instructional activities and skills assessment are based on Creative Curriculum and Learning Games. "Learning Games" is a research-based program designed to prepare children for age appropriate growth in the areas of cognitive, emotional, social and physical development.

Each age appropriate childcare room has caring, loving staff with many years of experience. Staff members get to know every child and involve it in activities according to the child's pace. The center has large, clean rooms for children to play, learn and grow in.

Parents also receive in-depth information about their child's development.

A Quality Program Means...

Teachers engage all children in activities.

Children participate in small groups with an appropriate teacher-child ratio.

Children are happy and involved.

Children participate in balanced activities: indoor/outdoor; active/quiet; group/individual; intellectual/artistic.

The center provides a fully equipped, attractive setting.
