Our Preschool philosophy is based on two concepts. First, each child is a unique individual and will develop physically, cognitively, emotionally and socially at his or her own pace. We see children as competent learners, capable of engaging with ideas and the world around them. Second, it is our belief that children learn through play. Play is their work. Additionally, play is the natural mode of learning for the young child. It is through play and our hands-on approach that we introduce literacy, early mathematics, science and social studies. We believe that it is essential to create an atmosphere of trust and safety where children will strive to become independent critical thinkers who feel free to explore their environment confidently.
Our program philosophy is fundamentally driven by Developmentally Appropriate Practices for young children as defined by the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC). Our curriculum is customized to meet each childs individual needs socially, emotionally, physically and cognitively.
