Program Philosophy: We believe that a child’s relationships and experiences in his early years will significantly impact the rest of his/her life. Therefore, it is crucial that children develop strong, loving relationships with their parents and caregiver. It is also important that children are provided opportunities for physical, communicative, cognitive, and social/emotional development.
Number of employees (including teachers and support staff): 6
Parents Provide: Baby formula, baby food, diapers and wipes for infants. All children need extra clothes and any medication.
Meals Provided: Breakfast, lunch, and afternoon snack.
Tell us about your program: Our goal is to provide the children entrusted to our care with learning experiences in all areas of development using methods that are developmentally appropriate, focused on the needs and interests of each child, and offered by loving, well-trained caregivers in a safe, healthy, and nurturing environment.
