We offer full time daycare in a 3-star learning environment with loving staff and purposeful play located in the friendly neighborhood of Northshore.
We are so pleased that you have taken the time to learn more about NLC.
Everything we do at Northside Learning Center is purposed to foster the development of the pre-school child – mental, emotional, physical and spiritual – in a loving Christian environment that is diverse in culture and respectful of all faiths. By providing a warm, nurturing atmosphere, capable teachers, and a rich developmental program, we give each child support along the path from home to school, working with the parents to make the most of early childhood. Through age-appropriate activities such as directed and free play, classroom work, art, music, drama and chapel service, the whole child is engaged to learn and grow as an individual and as a member of a learning community.
Our Classrooms

Infants
Our curriculum is based on the belief that a child needs to be nurtured and loved by caring adults— holding, singing, and talking to your child. We give individualized care and attention to each infant.
