Organization and Operation of a Child Care Center at the University of West Florida (Pensacola, Florida).
Christensen, Virginia
This report describes the organization and operation of the University of West Florida's Child Care Center which is designed to (1) meet the needs of commuting students for adequate child care, (2) enhance the self-concepts of enrolled children, (3) promote children's cognitive and language development. Children aged 2 1/2 to 6 years are served from 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, during each week of the regular academic year and the summer term. The center is open from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m., Monday through Thursday, if enrollment is sufficient. Field trips, art experiences and other special activities for children are made possible through the involvement of work-study students, undergraduate and graduate students from many disciplines. The report briefly describes the initial development of the center; the goals and objectives, management, staffing and activities of the center as it now operates; and the procedures followed to evaluate individual children and the total center program. The 60 pages of appendices contain numerous forms used at the center as well as a floor plan, budget summary, explanations of fee payment and accounting procedures used, and lists of staff duties.
