Our certified early childhood teachers provide a developmentally appropriate curriculum which stimulates growth in these areas:

Intellectual: We provide opportunity for math, science, reading, memory skills, language development and social science.

Social: We provide opportunity for the children to interact, guided by models of socially acceptable behavior.

Emotional: We provide opportunities for children to establish a good self-concept by offering many opportunities for a child to succeed, express ideas, and understand him/herself as a valuable person. We help children understand their emotions and attain skills to promote them.

Physical: We provide opportunities for children to develop both large and small muscle systems and acquire balance, endurance, and coordination appropriate to their ages.
