Description:
PHILOSOPHY
At Ann Kids Child Day Care Center we believe that every child is unique. We recognize kids as individuals, courage self-expression and try to help them develop their personal talents. We base our lesson plans on differentiated instruction and ensure that children enjoy learning. We believe that our job is to get your children to reach their full potential, while having fun and making friends.
CERTIFICATION
We participate in Keystone STARS and are currently rated as a STAR 4 Center.
HOURS OF OPERATION
Child care services are provided from 7 AM to 7PM Monday through Thursday. On Friday we close at 6:30PM.
School age care is available from 3PM to 7PM Monday through Thursday and also closes at 6:30PM on Friday.
NURSERY:
With a ratio of one supervisor per four children, safety and comfort of our patrons is our main concern. Our supervisors approach your children with love and care, so that every child feels at home. We do our best to reduce separation anxiety and ensure emotional comfort of your kids. We create a positive and friendly atmosphere and make sure that children feel understood. We prepare your kids for preschool, building their social skills and teaching them necessary educational basics.
PRESCHOOL:
We have a bilingual preschool, taught in both Russian and English languages. Children learn social interaction, basic math, reading, writing, shapes, and many other aspects of different school subject. With a closed playground right outside, children get enough fresh air and physical activity. They have dance lessons, singing and music class, speech development, and art included in the program.
AFTER-SCHOOL PROGRAM:
We approach each child on an individual basis and have an IEP (Individualized Education Plan)for each student, who requires special attention. We have licensed teachers, both Russian and American, who are currently employed at some of the best schools in Pennsylvania, including Council Rock School District. Our teachers do not simply supervise your children doing their homework. They check for accuracy and neatness, explain mistakes, help children with correcting them, and then check each student’s assignment book to make sure that no homework was missed. We help children with projects, test preparation, and explain all the material that is unclear. Our After-School Program is a professional learning environment, not a babysitting service.
SUMMER CAMP:
Our summer camp is famous for the variety of activities offered. Every week we offer two different trips. On Fridays, children go to the theater for different plays and shows. On Wednesdays, children go to such trips as Safari, museums, water parks, nature centers, entertainment centers, and many other interesting places, where you children will spend unforgettable time. We also offer dance class, drama lessons, athletic activities, swimming, singing, and karate as a part of the program. Twice a week children also have an academic hour, when they divide into different grade levels and have lessons in a variety of subjects.
