Your Child's Place recently completed the Department of Health and Department of Public Welfare surveys and is now a fully licensed PECC.

Your Child's Place is only the third center of its kind in the state of Pennsylvania and one of a limited number throughout the United States.

Your Child's Place provides skilled pediatric nursing care in addition to educational instruction in a child care setting. Children may be eligible for enrollment if they are 6 weeks to 8 yrs of age, medically fragile or technology dependent, and have services prescribed by their physician. This would include children with a serious, ongoing illness or chronic condition that would require the use of medical devices and constant medical care. A ratio of one professional nurse to every six children and one staff person for every three children ensures that your child receives personal and professional attention to their complex medical needs.

The food was excellent and children, parents, and staff had an opportunity to share some laughs and smiles together. Special thanks to everyone that volunteered to bring in a covered dish, the macaroni and cheese was SUPERB and the kids loved the cheese curls!
