We look forward to meeting you!




Philosophy

Our intention for being play-based is that we believe children learn best through hands on experiences. Children need to use all their senses to really understand the world around them. Our primary goal is to provide quality care and to give opportunities for children to grow their experiences and curiosities. Tremendous growth takes place during a child's early years, therefore we the teachers, work closely together with the parents to best support the child. 
We also aim to foster their budding social-emotional skills through their daily interactions with each other and in the community. Positive reinforcements and modeling are common practices we utilize to help children learn.
