Educational Day Care Programs

Our philosophy embraces a holistic approach toward education. We believe it is imperative that all children have the opportunity, through a safe, loving and stable learning atmosphere, to individually achieve their social, emotional, physical and intellectual potential. Most importantly, we believe learning should be FUN!

Through the curriculum areas of art, math, science, cooking, music, movement, social studies, practical life, dramatic play, language arts and manipulative activities, children learn to trust their own feelings about what they learn, hear, see and do, and they begin to share these experiences with others.
