The University of Washington Children's Center at Radford Court is a busy and exciting learning environment designed to meet the needs of Infant, Toddler and Preschool age children. We believe children learn and grow best in an environment that is warm, nurturing and supportive of individual needs. Your child will be encouraged to explore a wide variety of age-appropriate, hand-on activies, all at his or her own pace.

Our teachers are sensitive and respectful of a child's individuality and encourage each child to develop a joyful confidence with which to explore our constantly changing world.

Our relationship with the University of Washington promotes a multi-cultural community of families. We are committed to supporting and celebrating diversity in all areas of our early childhood programs.

Our philosophy is based on Maria Montessori's principals for early care and education. (Click here for a brief biography on Maria Montessori.)
