The early years of life are important for all areas of development. Our concern is for the child as a total being. The basic aim of our center is to provide the children with a quality educational program based on their needs and desires. Social, emotional, physical, and intellectual development is emphasized.
Each child is unique and all children are respected for their differences. Every child is allowed to progress at his/her own rate. All children are encouraged to develop their own personality. Children need to develop a positive self-image, to feel good about them as they are.
Independence is fostered by providing as much responsibility as the child can handle. Freedom to make choices and decisions for activities during the day encourages this independence. When given an interesting, challenging environment children will make wise choices for their learning activities. However, those children who need assistance in a particular area of development will receive encouragement to participate in activities that will strengthen those areas.
We believe our job is to provide an enriched environment with appropriate activities to enable the children to develop to their potential.
