OUR PHILOSOPHY:

We believe a crucial aspect of an excellent nurturing environment is the responsiveness to individual needs and the development of a positive self-image. Our warm and inviting developmental approach allows children to progress at their own pace in the areas of social, language, emotional, physical and intellectual skills.
Your child’s individual progress is encouraged, monitored, supervised and shared with you by our trained and experienced staff.

OUR GOAL:

Our goal is to provide a quality “child-directed” and “family-centered” preschool. “Child-directed” refers to the philosophy that in the preschool years the majority of a child’s time should be spent engaged in self-directed play. Our typical day offers a developmentally appropriate combination of teacher-directed and child-directed activities. “Family-centered” means that both the child and family are important and should be provided support and understanding.
