While our philosophy is based upon theories from many experts in the field of early childhood development the teachings of Magda Gerber and Jean Piaget are our primary influences. Magda Gerber a pioneer in the field of infant and toddler development stresses the home and childcare continuum. According to Gerber in the parents’ absence the child needs adults who will both nurture and educate them. This individual approach is reflected in our Infant/Toddler Program. Jean Piaget’s stages of development are represented in both the Pre-school and School-age Programs. Our staff is educated and trained in developmentally appropriate practices that are geared to meet the needs of each child. Respect for the individual is one of the most important aspects of our program as well as fostering a strong sense of confidence identity and self-worth.
