Eagles' Nest Early Learning Center is a licensed, non-profit childcare center located in Gilpin County dedicated to providing high quality childcare for infants, toddlers and preschoolers. Eagles Nest is the only licensed center for infants and toddlers in Gilpin county.
All of our programs are designed with the Creative Curriculum to provide active learning environments for children from ages 8 weeks to 6 years. Active learning provides children with direct, hands-on experiences with people, objects, events and ideas.
Children are encouraged to make activity choices and freely express thoughts and feelings and are always met with encouragement and positive interactions from the staff.
We hire teachers skilled in early childhood education who stimulate learning with diverse materials and provide physical, emotional and intellectual support. Our teachers to child ratios are below the state requirements providing you with
a high quality, affordable alternative to childcare.
"The important thing is not so much that every child should be taught, as that every child should be given the wish to learn."
