The philosophy of the Southern Berkshire Child Care Program (SBCCP) has its basis in a humanistic view of the child as an independent and individual learner. The aim of the program is to respond to the needs of every child as s/he develops awareness of the world and readiness for learning. Each group provides developmentally appropriate materials and activities for every child in the areas of social/emotional, intellectual, and aesthetic growth and psychomotor development.
Through planned activities, children are challenged to explore their world, solve problems, develop physically, and expand language skills and concepts. Teachers nurture a sense of competence and self-worth in every child. The emphasis is on active, hands-on learning that addresses the needs of the whole child.
Following long-term and current research on how children learn, the program offers both planned and spontaneous activities, encouraging independence while presenting limits that arise from being part of a group
