About the Provider
At Beachwood Nursery School, our educational philosophy is the belief that learning should be an active process for young children; learning through play and actual experiences. Emphasis is placed on helping children acquire skills that enable them to deal with situations, make choices and experience success within a carefully arranged structure. Learning opportunities are individualized and age appropriate so each child can develop at his or her own pace. Our goal is to provide a safe, caring environment away from home where children can learn and grow in confidence and in ability in all aspects of development; physically, socially, emotionally, intellectually and creatively. We see ourselves in partnership with parents and through our mutual sharing, we can ensure the best possible growth, development and learning for young children. Beachwood Nursery School believes parent participation is an important factor in school success. We welcome parent participation through classroom volunteers and mystery readers to name a few.
