We understand the importance of safety, consistency, and joy in the lives of the children that
we serve. Respect and nurturing are shown daily to children as we accept and embrace:
*The uniqueness and special qualities of each child.
*The emphasis on the whole child, not just one single area of development.
*An environment that acknowledges both structured and unstructured play as the most appropriate
way for young children to learn.
*The importance of early intervention and positive role modeling.
*Parents as equal partners.

We believe that children learn by doing, and that by integrating skills and concepts into
play activities, we can maximize learning potential. Each child is viewed as a unique person
with an individual pattern and timing of growth and development. Different levels of ability
and learning styles are expected, accepted and used to design appropriate activities. Interactions
and activities are planned to develop self-esteem and positive feelings toward learning.
