Broward Children's Center
ABA Intensive Program
The half day ABA therapeutic program is part of Daisy Village at Broward Children’s Center. Designed for toddlers and preschool aged children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder, the curriculum and therapy programs help children develop communication, play, social and daily life skills in addition to self-regulation.
We strive to provide each child with the tools to reach their potential through teaching opportunities in the natural environment and one on one with a therapist. Staff is trained in the principles of ABA and various communication methods including the Picture Exchange Communication System (PECS), visual cueing strategies and visual engineering of the environment. Daisy Village intensive preschool offers on-site behavioral therapy (ABA), speech/language therapy, occupational therapy and physical therapy.
​
Daisy Village at Broward Children’s Center offers a small, nurturing environment where all children will thrive. We adhere to all CDC guidelines for the safety of our children and staff.

Developmental Preschools
Broward Children’s Center’s Developmental Preschools offer child-centered, developmentally appropriate programs that facilitate individual growth, and prepares each child for further education. Our goal is to help children with various challenges and abilities develop a lifelong love of learning and self.
Programs are taught in a loving, sensitive environment, allowing children to address issues of trust, self-esteem, and independence. We view play as a child’s work and have built a curriculum around it. Our preschool classrooms have several interactive centers where the child is free to explore under the guidance and supervision of his or her teacher.
​
Areas include:
​
-
Dramatic Play
-
Building blocks

Cognitive (Academic) Center

Our team acknowledges that each child is different and has different levels of growth. We honor and value each child’s development, as well as their life away from school. Families are always welcomed, supported, valued, and
listened to. We believe that together, at home and at school, we can educate children to prepare them for the future.

BCC Academy
Broward Children’s Center’s private school, BCC Academy, provides educational, therapeutic, and behavioral services for children with special needs, pre-kindergarten through fifth grade.
Our non-profit private school is specifically designed to meet the unique developmental and educational needs of children with moderate to severe disabilities, through research-based instructional strategies and a thematic-based curriculum.
Various assessments and observations are used to set educational goals for each child. Parental input is encouraged throughout this process to optimize a student’s educational experience. The classrooms are designed for each child to receive the personal attention needed to achieve their goals.
​
It is important to know that students who are placed in a private school by their parents do not have an individual right to receive some or all of the special education and related services that the student would receive if enrolled in a public school under the Individual with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), as amended.
​
Tuition:
​
Tuition plans are individualized per student. We will work with families to help meet the costs associated with attending BCC Academy. Additional funding options are available through the Family Empowerment Scholarship Program.
These scholarships provide funding for eligible students to attend an approved public or private school of their choice.

Ethics Training and Reporting
Reporting of Ethical Misconduct is required by law and is our duty as professionals entrusted with the safety and welfare of students every day.
Florida Statute section 39.203 and section 768.095 protect the person reporting ethical misconduct from reprisal by the individual reported or the employer if the report was made in good faith without malicious intent. Broward Children’s Center requires that every employee report any issue that could currently or potentially impact the health, safety, or welfare of its students and employees.
​
The process for reporting is as follows. Any incident that an employee believes is potentially harmful to a student or another employee should be immediately reported to the school director, or designee if absent. Any employee who knowingly fails to report misconduct or abuse will be subject to discipline, up to and including termination.
​
Parents, students, and employees should regularly visit the public registry to review it for individuals who may have prior criminal records and sex offenses.
Information concerning registered sex offenders and predators in Florida may be obtained by visiting http://www.fdle.state.fl.us, the Florida Department of Law Enforcement Sexual Offenders database.
Information may also be obtained by contacting the FDLE’s toll free telephone number: 1-888-FL-PREDATOR (1-888-357-7332).
The school performs criminal-background checks on its employees and volunteers with unsupervised access to children, but cannot attest to the background of the various parents with whom their child may associate away from school.
​
In cases of suspected Physical Abuse, Sexual abuse or Neglect the employee should report those issues immediately to the
1-800-96Abuse hotline.
​
Notice: All employees will be required to complete ethics training on an annual basis as a condition of their employment.
