We believe that good childcare depends upon consistent caregiving in a home-like atmosphere. Children grow and learn best in a safe environment that provides opportunities to explore create and communicate with other children and adults. These groups function independently but cooperatively following routines appropriate to individual needs. The program is designed to be inclusive of all children including those with identified disabilities and special learning and developmental needs.
The Center’s program is designed to include both planned and spontaneous activities in response to children’s interests. Experiences with music movement art language and building are incorporated into daily plans. Regularly scheduled snacks and meals rest time indoor and outdoor play and routines in physical caregiving promotes the child’s health comfort and ability to care for his/herself. There is maximum flexibility for the children as a group and as individuals.
Children are encouraged to develop a positive self-image to learn inner controls and to cooperate with peers and caregivers. Clearly defined limits help them recognize and accept their emotions and express their feelings as they grow and feel secure in the world around them.
