CRC's early childhood center
The Nest at CRC
Welcome to The Nest at CRC. We are an early childhood program serving families of children age 6 weeks to 5 years old. We provide a small, loving environment where children will learn about themselves, others, and the world around them.



At The Nest, parents and teachers work together to foster the growth and development of our children. Young children learn through play and active learning. We strive to provide each child with many varied opportunities to explore, experiment and grow.
Please feel free to contact us if you would like a tour or have specific questions about our program. We look forward to hearing from you!
