Tooney Town Early Learning Center

Our philosophy of loving, laughing and learning together is achieved through developing children emotionally, physically, and socially in the proper environment. Therefore, Tooney Towns staff is committed to making sure that the children in our center are nurtured in a learning atmosphere.

It is our philosophy that children can develop emotionally, physically and socially, if the proper environment is provided. That is why Tooney Town is committed to making sure that your child is in a nurturing educational environment. We believe that Learning is Fun and that child care should also be fun, educational, nurturing and provide each family with a sense of security. A warm parent-teacher relationship will give each family worry-free care. Creativity and independence will be encouraged in order for your child to maintain the joy of childhood.

We at Tooney Town are committed to preparing your little one for primary grade school. This is why we feel that the foundation for learning should be an enjoyable experience for children of all ages. We have adopted several educational resources. Combined, these resources are the basis for our educational and fun curriculum. Tooney Town uses Hooked on Phonics Reading, Math and Writing, which has reported a 93% success rate, along with Abeka, High Reach, Toddlers Together and The Comprehensive Infant & Toddler Curriculum. Our Preschool 3, Preschool 4 and Pre-Kindergarten programs use the Abeka curriculum along with the creativity of the teacher. Our other programs use the other curriculums listed above.

Tooney Town provides an environment that supports self-esteem and learning. Our Cuddle Care curriculum encourages infants and toddlers to explore the world around them, build vocabulary, small and large motor skills and much more. Our Twoddler Curriculum introduces basic concepts and skills, including fine and gross motor skills, through fascinating monthly themes that build a strong foundation for early learning. Our Preschool curriculum is designed to develop beginning readiness skills. The Abeka curriculum that is used by our Pre-K class is phonetically based and provides the necessary support for the children to read fluently. All of our children are exposed to subjects such as reading, math, science and social studies. We use a combined approach using whole language and phonological awareness to offer a well-rounded literacy experience.

We offer a before and after school program for local elementary schools. Our school age program exposes the children to subjects such as public speaking, current events, home studies, computer learning, arts & crafts, science and geography. These children also have time for Hooked on Phonics. Below you will find a list of monthly themes that the entire center uses.
