our Philosophy
We believe that the time between birth and pre-school is magical and important. During this period, children develop skills associated with self-confidence, awareness, independence and understanding of the world around them. Brain growth and development is extensive during this period, which influences the foundation of learning that carries children through their lives.
Our environment is safe, predictable, nurturing and stimulating for young minds and ripe for discovery, socialization and experimentation. As for parents, adult’s roles and perspectives are also changing, as “Parenting” is both challenging and rewarding. Parent education and discussion in a supportive environment are fundamental to our program. The role of a parent and caregiver is an undeniable gift and an opportunity to affect a child’s life forever.
We aspire to help parents and children make this experience fulfilling and enjoyable. We look forward to being a part of you and your child's life in the coming months and years to come!
