Welcome to New Gulph

New Gulph is marking its fortieth birthday. In thinking about what to write, I considered several new features of New Gulph and realized what is most special about New Gulph is not what is new, but what has remained the same in the forty years since the first parents entrusted their children to our care. At that time, parents wanted a place that would nurture and stimulate their children. They wanted a place where their children would feel comfortable, safe and loved. They wanted a place where their children could explore, grow and learn. And they knew that the key ingredient for this was a staff of qualified and loving teachers who would care for their children and the Center. 

 The same ideals of nurturing children in a loving environment and preparing the whole child—physically, academically, socially and emotionally, for not only kindergarten, but also a life-long love of learning—continue to be the focus of New Gulph. Not only have these principles remained, but also so have many of the teachers. The quality of care every child receives stands in testimony to the quality of the staff, many of whom have been at New Gulph 10, 20, 35 years and more. The continuity and stability of the teaching staff is among the traits that set New Gulph apart from other centers. Indeed, it is those very traits which enable parents to go off to work having nothing but fond thoughts of their child, knowing they are happy and stimulated and in a warm, loving and safe environment.

Over time, a strong New Gulph community has emerged that extends beyond semesters, classrooms, school districts, and even colleges. I hope this site answers some of your questions and begins to give you a sense of what a very special place New Gulph is. I am always happy to “show off” our kids and the Center and invite you to visit New Gulph Children’s Center so you can see for yourself.

In the meantime, thanks for taking the time to visit NGCC online!
