Our philosophy: Children’s Home provides age-appropriate learning and school readiness skills in a non-competitive and cooperative environment. Low staff-to-child ratios ensure individualized attention. Our commitment to staff: Children’s Home employs dedicated professionals who are educated in child development and committed to children. Staff members are encouraged to extend their capabilities and opportunities for advancement through regular in-service training, further course work and professional affiliations. Our educational approach: Children’s Home is a member agency of the Child Welfare League of America and embraces the League’s Philosophy of Early Childhood Care & Education. Specifically, we must provide our children with settings and opportunities that: ? Encourage discovery and support and safeguard inquiry, whether in the form of questions or experiments with reality; Promote a sense of accomplishment with self-esteem through sincere appreciation by friendly adults or peers; Provide adult role models who can help them along the road to responsibility; Help children participate actively with peers in small groups as well as with understanding adults so that they can develop a positive outlook and attitude toward life and themselves; Teach children to understand cultural and ethnic diversity and to respect those who are different from themselves.
