Carlisle Early Education Center serves children ages 6 weeks to 5 years.

Programs

Carlisle Early Education Center serves children ages 6 weeks to 5 years in a nurturing, safe, and engaging environment. Our programs are designed to support each stage of development, fostering curiosity, confidence, and a lifelong love of learning.

  • The Infant Program meets the daily needs of infants while building trust and emotional security through nurturing interactions with responsive and caring teachers.
  • Our Toddler Programs encourage exploration, independence, and early social development. Teachers guide toddlers as they learn to communicate, solve problems, and interact with the world around them.
  • The Preschool Program prepares children for kindergarten by promoting creativity, independence, and a positive self-image through hands-on learning experiences and structured activities.
  • Children are encouraged to develop a strong sense of community, personal responsibility, and social confidence.

Our programs also promote literacy development, self-esteem building and social skills. At CEEC, we believe young children learn best through hands-on, child-initiated experiences that allow them to explore, discover, and grow in a supportive and stimulating environment. These activities offer children a wide range of opportunities to directly experience and manipulate new ideas and objects, while having fun.

Curriculum

Carlisle Early Education Center utilizes The Creative Curriculum, a research-based program that balances teacher-directed and child-initiated learning. This approach responds to each child’s unique learning style while building on their strengths and interests.

  • Cognitive and language development

This nationally recognized curriculum aligns with the Pennsylvania Early Learning Standards and incorporates ongoing assessments to ensure each child’s success.
