About the Provider
The primary goal of Great Expectations is to provide a safe and nurturing, yet challenging environment where children are encouraged to create, explore, and discover in a ‘hands on’ manner. Each child is regarded as an individual with unique ideas, talents, and capabilities. The development of a positive self-concept is also of prime importance, since feeling good about oneself has a direct effect on the skill-building and socialization process.
