Timberlake's Child Development Center strives to provide a succession of experiences where a child may have an opportunity to develop spiritually, emotionally, socially, mentally, and physically at his/her own rate as he/she becomes an individual. We are staffed by loving teachers who have either a degree or are qualified with years of experience. Most of our staff are trained in First Aid and CPR.
