About the Provider
By providing a variety of activities, our program offers enriching, relaxing, fun-oriented learning experiences. We always keep in mind that children are unique and develop at varying intervals. We encourage each child to use his/her potential and we provide new experiences for growth. It is our purpose to help each child develop to the best of his/her individual ability and to provide an atmosphere in which the child can learn to share and be a supportive member of a team. It is our policy to encourage a child to develop self-control, self-esteem, self-reliance and self-direction. Through the encouragement of these skills, a safe and happy atmosphere can be enjoyed by all. Our highly qualified staff will plan a lot of different activities for the children each day, especially team building activities and group games. Destini’s Daycare uses a full-daily curriculum that teaches the children math, literacy, social studies, science, computer skills and music to prepare them for kindergarten. The children have daily routine activities which include exercise, learning time, arts/craft projects and creative expression activities. Our center is always a very active and fun learning environment. We also feel that children need to have interacting playtime with other children to build there social skills. Our indoor playground even includes a large soft-play jungle gym where they can work off that excess energy. If you would like to fill out an online enrollment application for your child, we are starting to compile a waiting list. Print and fill out all the information on the application, then mail it to us and Destini will contact you soon. You can mail the enrollment forms to:
