Description:
At New Horizon Little Learners, we believe the best way to help children succeed is to teach them to be creative, confident thinkers. That means offering them opportunities for hands-on exploration and discovery that help build lifelong critical thinking skills and foster confidence.
New Horizon Little Learners utilizes Creative Curriculum to encourage exploration and discovery as a way of learning, enabling children to develop confidence, creativity, and critical thinking skills.
Little Learners approach to child development follows several philosophies that allow for healthy physical, mental, and emotional development of infants and children.
Children need to experience the world and adults are responsible for guiding them through this great exploration. Through exposure and introduction to new things, children are able to learn and build skills at their own pace. Everyday experiences can be teaching moments for children. At Little Learners we believe that play is the work of a child, which provides the foundation for social and emotional skill development.
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.
