Riverview Children's Center provides a nurturing and creative environment with careful attention to the individual needs of each child.
As the first childcare center in Western Pennsylvania to achieve accreditation by the National Association for the Education of Young Children, RCC has maintained continuous accreditation since 1987. In maintaining accredited status, RCC adheres to high standards for health and safety, staff-child relationships, age-appropriate learning experiences, and parental involvement. RCC also adheres to all licensing requirements of DPW, repeatedly earning perfect scores during the annual licensing inspection.
From the moment you enter our facility, you'll recognize RCC as a place that cares about children. Safety and security are fostered through an electronic entry system for authorized family members and a visitor identification system.
Constructed in 1979 and expanded and renovated in 2000, our facility includes designated space for each group of children, plus separate space for administration, food preparation and staff relaxation. Full-year programs enjoy a spacious 50 square feet of indoor space per child. All rooms are secure, bright, well-lit, and full of age-appropriate, developmentally-stimulating materials, with separate rooms for the different age groups/programs.
Outside, children enjoy three age-appropriate play areas-including a state-of-the-art playground with bike path and basketball court-as well as a swimming pool, veranda, and woods with riverfront access.
Villa Maria Academy, a Catholic private day school for girls in grade K-8, and co-ed Early Learning Center for three and four-year-olds located in Immaculata, Pennsylvania, was established in 1872.
