History
Managed by the Morris Center YMCA, Children’s Corner first opened on September 16, 1996 on the campus of Morristown Memorial Hospital. We recently relocated to a new larger state of the art center located in Atlantic Health’s Corporate Headquarters at 475 South Street in Morris Township.
The Center includes 140,000 square feet of spacious classrooms, three playgrounds and a spacious indoor playroom.
The center achieved NAEYC (National Association for the Education of Young Children) accreditation in 1998 and has retained it ever since.
The NAEYC is a national, voluntary accreditation system that has set professional standards for early childhood education programs, and helped families identify high-quality programs for their young children.
From infants through preschool the Children’s Corner offers quality care for your child in a safe nurturing environment.
