Additional Culture Details
Given its long history in Dallas and the large number of employees with over 20 years of service, ChildCareGroup is fortunate to have a strong, family-oriented culture. Employees often speak of their strong commitment to the agency mission and its vision to serve our community’s most vulnerable children and parents.
A belief in the importance of relationships is at the core of everything we do, from the way we interact with one another in the workplace and in the relationships we promote between teachers, children and their parents. In the mid-70’s, our work in the field of brain development led to our trademarked model of care: Relationship Centered Child Care (RC3), which we still practice today in all our early childhood programs.
