There can be a lot of change in 50 years. But one thing that has remained consistent is the vital services provided by Better Beginnings Child Development Center, on North Main Street in Hightstown., At the March 21 Township Council meeting, East Windsor Mayor Janice Mironov presented a proclamation to Better Beginnings in honor of its 50 years of service to the community, in conjunction with April being“the month of the young child.”, “For the last 50 years the organization has provided accessible and affordable care to young children in our community allowing them to have a better beginning,” said the mayor. “They also provide a place for working parents to bring their children knowing that they have kind and caring individuals to look after them while they go to work.”, The mayor said that Better Beginnings is “committed to providing a developmentally appropriate environment based on individual needs and learning styles in an atmosphere encouraging individual development and achievement.”, Along with other board members who were present, Better Beginnings Director Luz Horta accepted the proclamation on behalf of the center., “I want to thank everyone that has made Better Beginnings possible through 50 years,” said Hurta. “It is so true that we must remember our children today and for the future by providing them a strong foundation as they enter school ready to succeed.”, Better Beginnings will hold its annual “Shining Star” gala on May 20, at which the group will celebrate its 50th anniversary., For more information on this event, or any services that Better Beginnings offers, visit the website at www.Betterbeginnings.net.
