Description: The Children in the Shoe has been providing childcare for young children for more than 30 years, and we are excited to have this opportunity to tell you about our programs! Our approach to the care of young children is developmental, creating environments which produce secure, well-adjusted children, who are eager and ready to learn. We encourage emotional intelligence through nurturing, kindness, verbal interaction, positive discipline, and encouraging empathy and conflict resolution skills. Our classrooms are rich in opportunities for learning language, math, nature, music, art, and social skills through play, exploration, and the use of carefully planned, age-appropriate materials and activities.
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.
