About the Provider
We would like to take this opportunity to welcome you and your family to Carousel of Learning. We are confident that your child will do well throughout our program. We strive to provide the ultimate safe, nurturing, and learning environment for your child. The main objective of our program is to encourage and support the development of the individual, and to provide opportunities for self exploration and discovery. Since children are active and curious, it is our goal to provide learning experiences designed to stimulate your child's creative learning abilities. Since pre-school has become almost a prerequisite to public school, we make the atmosphere one of warmth and love so that the experience our children have during the first years in school is a positive one. As this may be a new experience for you and your child, it may be a worrisome one. Please feel free to call us and we will gladly give you a progress report on your child. Thank you and welcome to the Carousel of Learning family.
