Clayton Child Care Programs
Bright Baby: Infants
Our infant program accepts children beginning at 6 weeks. We give your baby the love and attention they deserve through interactive experiences developing mind and body alike. The curriculum includes one-on-one activities like sign-language, puppets, music, books and even yoga.
Smart Steps: Infants + Toddlers
We channel the natural curiosity of toddlers into a higher level of understanding through experiences with blocks, music, creative play and more - all promoting positive social interaction and language acquisition!
Ready-2-Learn: Toddlers + Twos
Our curriculum for children in the toddlers and twos class fosters the critical relationship building that occurs at this age, supporting intellectual and social development. Teachers emphasize daily routines and social interaction through family-style meals and other small group activities.
Pre-Kindergarten Prep Academy: Preschool
Our literacy-rich environment prepares your child for their first day of school. Classrooms are divided into learning centers, encouraging your child to learn new skills through self-selected, hands-on activities.
Kindergarten Prep Academy: Pre-K
Focused on preparing your children to begin Kindergarten the next year, our Pre-K classrooms focus on math, literacy, science and communication skills. Our teachers assess each child’s development throughout the year, to help guide planning, teaching, and partnerships with parents.

Our before and after school program provides children daily experiences in math, science, language, and art as well as outdoor time to run and play. Transportation to and from school provided.

About
Welcome to our preschool in Clayton, NC! My name is Shavonte Baker-Richardson and I am the school Director. I have worked in childcare for over 12 years, and work hard to create a family atmosphere at our center. Childcare Network strives to create a warm and loving environment for the children, parents, and teachers. It is my pleasure to welcome you and your family into our fun, educational learning environment.
I believe that a quality early learning center is the best option for parents and their children. My passion for working with children developed when I realized the importance of early learning and developmental milestones. Being able to assist in providing a nurturing environment for your family is the most rewarding part of my job!
All of us take great pride in being so much more than a daycare in this community. Childcare Network lays the educational foundation for each child to be successful throughout life with quality curriculum and activities for every age group. We are affordable and work with every family to meet their needs making us, unlike any other child care provider.
I look forward to seeing a slew of smiles walk through the front door each and every morning; hearts filled with the desire to be here, to be successful, and to have pride in what they are accomplishing! Please do not wait for formal conferences to discuss any concerns you have with me. My door is always open!
