Our Philosophy...

  • ​Each child is an individual with his/her own needs and will be treated as such.
  • ​Each child will be treated with respect.
  • ​Each child needs care and nurturing in the absence of his/her parents as well as with them.
  • Each child needs directions for his/her activities with room for creativity.
  • ​Each child must treat the others with respect and fairness in work and play.
  • ​Each child relaxes and participates well in an atmosphere of informal structure.
  • Each child works best with guidelines that are consistent.
  • ​Each child will be treated equally and fairly regardless of color, race, religion or origin.

About Our Centers & Staff...

There's a reason we've been around for so long and are recommended so highly by clients.  Lois Johnson Learning & Child Care Centers are licensed by the Department of Human Resources (DHS) and are Keystone STARS Centers (a collaboration between the Pennsylvania Department of Education & DHS).  We are also members of the Pennsylvania Child Care Association (PACCA) and National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC). 

​Our staff members are carefully selected for their caregiving/teaching experience, training, and educational background, along with their sensitivity to the individual needs of the school-age child.  Staff are trained in pediatric first aid and CPR.  All have current clearances and meet the requirements of DHS for licensed child care facility staff. All of our early learning centers are nut-free facilities.
