The Children’s Village at Hoover, a program of the Davenport Community Schools, and the program’s director, Kathy Erickson, has been named a Gold Seal child care provider by the Iowa Early Care, Health and Education Congress.

The Gold Seal Award is presented to licensed child care centers that have achieved accreditation from the National Association for the Education of Young Children.  “These providers have demonstrated their commitment to providing high quality child care for children” said Jody Caswell, Iowa Department of Human Services program manager.
