About the Provider

At Dall'Inizio DaySchool we embrace muddy feet, rainy days, music-filled classrooms, climbing up the slide, big personalities, problem solvers, security blankets, bear hugs, show-n-tell, impromptu investigations, helping our neighbors, unconventional classroom materials, books... all books, and trying over and over and over again.... we embrace childhood and every single child.  We are a Reggio Emilia Inspired Early Learning Center.  We strive to provide high quality care in Centre County and nurture each child’s ability to acquire knowledge.  We believe that learning is fostered through a child’s natural curiosity and a purposeful environment.  Our classroom settings provide a safe, loving, and nurturing setting for learning to occur.  

 

Additional Information:

The Reggio Emilia Approach :

The Reggio Emilia principles that guide our work include the following:
• The image of the child or the belief is that our children are capable of consrtucting their own learning.
• Relationships or the understanding that a child’s education requires connections among the environment, families, teachers, and the larger community.   
• The role of parents is believed to be a critical component of educating all children within the school.
• The environment and space supports interactions, meaningful projects and learning.
