The University of Houston Children's Learning Centers (CLC) temporarily closed Monday, March 23, 2020 in an effort to support the nation's need to flatten the curve of the COVID-19 pandemic and to safeguard the health and well-being of our CLC community. The facility will remain closed until further notice.
CLC staff will be working remotely and can be reached via email Monday-Friday from 8:00 am-5:00 pm. You can also contact us at ccenter@uh.edu or 832-842-0500.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Our staff is dedicated to ensuring that your child's needs are met in a stimulating and developmentally appropriate environment that is joyful, safe, warm and secure. We want each child to enjoy their formative years and every parent to feel confident that their child is well cared for. Read More.
High quality early childhood education benefits children. Children who experience a quality program are more likely to have greater academic success, enhanced self-esteem and increased self-control. UHCLC aligns the program and curriculum with national (NAEYC & AdvancED) and state guidelines and is licensed by Texas Department of Family & Protective Services.
We utilize multi-age classrooms to assist the overall development of the child within the family-like community of learners. The program is organized and staffed to minimize the number of group, teaching staff and classroom transitions experienced by the child.
We believe a learning environment that fosters respect for cultural diversity and utilizes an eclectic approach to education allows for optimal growth and development of young children.
Please refer to the CLC Program Guides for classroom transition strategies and planning.
“Both boys learned so much, including a lot of Spanish, and we all appreciated the caring, professional teachers and staff. We will really miss CLC!”
“My son had a great experience at CLC. I loved the staff and teachers; they have great customer service and were always very friendly and knowledgeable.”
“We’ve been nothing but happy with our experience at CLC. Our daughter has opened up so much, she is much less inhibited, and she feels loved and nurtured every day. Her teachers have been supportive and communicative, and I feel like we’re a part of a loving and supportive family.”
“CLC is the university of child learning.”
“Our daughter really enjoys her participation in the full-immersion Spanish classroom. We are very happy with her progress in the class and exposure to the diverse cultural experience at a young age that the program affords.”
“I’m very fortunate for my daughter to have spent the last three years at CLC. She has become a smart and confident child. I am forever grateful for the caring and professional staff at CLC. Thank you.”
“We really enjoyed the experience that CLC provided to us as a family, as well as the experience Sean had individually. Not only was the care trusted and wonderful, but the education and progress made in him has exceeded all expectations. Thank you all for the investment made for our family. We are greatly benefitted by your involvement.”
“My son has grown so much at CLC. He is strikingly more advanced (both physically and cognitively) than his friends who do not attend CLC. I credit the amazing teachers who give loving attention and encourage his growth and development. We have definitely felt CLC to be very family oriented and we are sad to go. Go Coogs!”

At the Children’s Learning Centers (CLC) our language immersion methodology incorporates the CLC mission and the core values of early childhood education. We believe children develop at greater levels when activities include all learning domains; we know that children learn by doing, interacting and expressing. We have four Spanish Language Immersion classrooms; two toddler and two preschool.
