Our Philosophy…
… recognizing the community’s need for infant care, preschool care, kindergarten and school aged child care for working parents, we give priority placement to this population.
… We believe children learn best through play and social interactions. Our main goals are to nurture children and help them learn to get along with their peers. Child-centered means our program is here to meet the real needs of children, allow them the freedom to be children, and put their physical, emotional, and intellectual well-being first.
… We see inappropriate or destructive behavior as a problem to be solved, primarily by the children with the help of a teacher. Problem solving is how we teach children to form positive relationships, resolve conflicts, learn self-discipline, and show respect for others.
… We accomplish these goals through active listening, negotiating, setting limits, making children feel important, and building our learning environment around the children’s needs.
… We are always happy to discuss our philosophy, as well as the individual needs of your child with you.
