Transformation in Education
In 2007 Tilborg proposed a statement during a board meeting, which influenced the definition of "early learning" and gave it a complete new dimension. Tilborg argued that the words early learning center doesn't only refer to an educational site and care programs for children in their early years of life, but represents small constructive steps each person takes to achieve a particular goal. After quorum was reached, approval was granted in accordance with the childcare rules and regulations, to exclude several age restrictions at the Early Learning Center where Tilborg operated as the general manager. This led to expansion of the term and JC's Early Learning Center became an educational site to all who were willing to learn vocational skills in early childhood development (ECD).
SATISFACTION
Transforming the objectives in regards to early learning, established successful partnerships with Polk Works (Currently known as CareerSource Polk), various governmental, non governmental and local organizations. Additionally Tilborg offered vouchers for 30 hours free childcare services per week with meals included to children of parent(s) in need. This solved a gap for job seekers who couldn't afford such services, while seeking employability. Her initiatives and community development services resulted in employment of hundreds individuals in Polk County, Florida. In 2010 and 2011 JC's Ealy Learning Center was acknowledged for its dedication to the children and families of Polk County and therefore received the provider appreciation recognition awarded by the Early Learning Coalition.
