Overview

About Early Childhood Studies at California Baptist University

In CBU’s innovative early childhood studies program, students learn how to integrate developmental learning theories in the classroom with children ages 0–8.

With coursework that focuses on children’s cognitive, social, emotional, perceptual-motor and spiritual growth, the early childhood studies degree creates leaders in early intervention, research and early childhood advocacy.

Why study Early Childhood Studies at California Baptist University?

Early on, students understand the importance of loving ALL children, especially those who have been marginalized through disabilities, race or poverty.

The Early Childhood Studies Club is active and each semester we assist children and families in the surrounding community through canned food drives, books for Olive Crest foster care and Thanksgiving meal donations. This is a relational major.

We care about each other and the children and families we serve.
