About the Provider

Description: At Children and Company, each child is able to make choices and follow his or her own interests. The atmosphere of free exploration allows each child to develop his or her creative potential. We acknowledge and respect a child’s need for security in his or her environment. A child needs to trust in adults who provide caring guidance with few, but firm limitations. A child needs a sense of belonging, fostered by whole class and small group activities, as well as a predictable routine in the school day. Routine provides a dependable framework within which children will feel comfortable as they play, learn, and explore.

Additional Information: MSDE-Approved Education Program.
