We are dedicated to providing high quality professional care to infants, toddlers and Preschool children in YMCA programs. Creating the strong emotional bonds between the child, families and other children is the primary focus. Children need to feel emotionally and physically safe in their environment to reach their highest potential.
We understand that children develop at different rates and incorporate that belief into every aspect of the program. We provide opportunities for children to engage in developmentally appropriate activities that focus on learning. Our program is values-based and incorporates hands-on learning experiences that teach the values of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility.
Using the Reggio Emilia approach, our curriculum embraces the concept that in the early years of development children are forming who they are as an individual. Therefore, we have created a program based on the principles of respect, responsibility and community through exploration and discovery in a supportive and enriching environment based on the interests of the children through a self guided curriculum.
