About the Provider

Description: I like to have families and children view "My School" as a "home away from home." I maintain a flexible home-like atmosphere where children are comfortable and content as they master self-help skills; learn to cooperate and share with friends. Respect and empathy are modeled. Pre-K skills are learned in a play-like environment. Other curriculum includes access to computer, art/craft activities, cirlce/meeting time, daily outside play, dramatic play, regular daily routine, songs/music activities, sand & water play, story time & literacy activities, and is a play-based program.

Additional Information: Program Meals: Allergy Awareness, Special Diets, Special Schedule: In-Service Days; Initial License Date: 01/08/2006; 2 Star Registered Home; Sibling Discount Available; Area Description: Fenced Yard, Smoke Free;
