ABOUT US

 

 Program Philosophy 

 

We believe that:  each child is an individual who deserves to be respected and appreciated for his/her own unique character. Young children must feel safe, secured, loved, appreciated and given a sense of empowerment before any learning can occur.

Preschool age children learn best by interacting with their environment in a “hands-on” experience during play. The best curriculum for young children is one that provides creativity and exploration to promote growth in all areas of development (cognitive, social, emotional, physical, intellectual and creative). Our school is designed to provide a structured, stimulating and fun environment which will help your child with fundamental learning skills.
