About the Provider
Our daycare works hard to stay posted on the most up-to-date teaching methods. We are constantly changing our curriculum but maintain basic methods that we believe nurture children’s learning. We teach the "Houghton Mifflin Curriculm" for all our pre-school children. This is the Curriculm that is currently being taught in all Charles County Public Schools. We want your child to be fully prepared before entering formal education. Our methods are exemplified in the activities we do with the kids.
