At Tender Hearts...
Is committed to providing a safe environment for your child. All staff members are background-checked, First Aid & CPR certified, and have completed childcare training which includes physical activity training, and SIDS training. They are offered First Aid/CPR/AED re-certification as needed upon hire and annually thereafter. At least one employee who is certified in First Aid, CPR and AED will be on duty at all times.
Has the best of both worlds. Being licensed in the State of North Dakota to care for 30 children, we offer developmentally appropriate activities in separate classrooms like a childcare center; yet we are small enough to join classes together at times, build multiple teacher-child relationships, and offer a home-like environment similar to a home-based childcare setting.
Through Bright & Early North Dakota! Bright & Early North Dakota is an initiative led by the North Dakota Department of Human Services to ensure children receive the quality childcare they need for success in school and life. Using research-based quality rating tools and observation assessments, Bright & Early North Dakota recognizes early childhood programs who go above and beyond.
Tender Hearts Early Learning Program is a program of The Perry Center, a non-profit organization that provides a home for young women experiencing an unplanned pregnancy. We strive to provide a safe, loving, Christ-centered environment with an emphasis on nurturing children and developing a life-long relationship with Jesus. Enrollment is open to families in the community, including moms residing at The Perry Center or transitioning to independent living.
