Description: Muddy hands believes that children deserve freedom to explore and create. Children have a natural curiosity and love for learning. They often exhibit this curiosity through play. We believe in creating an environment in which children are able to obtain vast learning experiences while providing sufficient time for them to enjoy these experiences. We also believe that respect plays an important role in a child care setting. Children learn to respect themselves, others and property by modeling respectful behavior. The teachers follow a child centered, Reggio Emilia philosophy while planning the curriculum. Our days are filled with a balance of planned structured activities and free play. Although structured activities are hands on and interesting, children may choose not to participate. Teachers need to have the flexibility to change the activity if the children are not benefiting. No child will be forced to participate and other activities are always available. Free play is designed to allow children to explore the environment at their own leisure. Generally, we do not set limits on the number of children allowed in any area. It is the role of the teacher to observe and document how well the environment is working for the children.
Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.
