About the Provider

Description: We offer a philosophy of learning through play and discovery. Young children need to have lots of time to play and explore their environment. Through a balance of self-directed and teacher-directed activities, we strive to enrich a child's social, emotional, intellectual, and physical development. In addition to being well qualified and experienced in early childhood education, we believe that a teacher should be trained and experienced in classroom management, positive reinforcement techniques, and have excellent parent/teacher communication skills.
