Creative Beginnings has been a NAEYC accredited program for over 5 years. Accredited early childhood centers have completed an extensive self-study of their entire program. A commitment to provide a high quality children’s program must be made in order to comply to the Academy’s standards. The program is then validated and reviewed by a team of early childhood professionals. After a thorough review, if the program is judged to be in compliance with the Academy’s criteria for excellence, it is then granted accreditation for a 3-year period. Creative Beginnings has been accredited since 1992.
