Description: The Family Garden Believes:
Multi-aged groups teach children how to get along and care about one another. Low child to teacher ratios build secure relationships, the foundation for healthy child development. A child driven curriculum provides a firm social, emotional & academic foundation. The teachers at The Family Garden facilitate experiences for the children to learn in many different ways and through role modeling and supervising the interactions among the children.Children should be allowed to make mistakes, make choices, solve problems and learn at their own pace in their own way!
The Family Garden offers the best of both worlds between a home provider and a typical center with our small class sizes, low teacher to child ratios, multiple multi-aged classrooms and designated facility.
We work together as a team both with the family and within the center as a whole to offer the children as much love, support and education as possible!
