Josephine Caring Community (Josie's Learning Center)

Josephine is an Intergenerational Care Community providing post-hospital nursing and therapy rehabilitation, loving skilled nursing care, attentive and homelike assisted living, childcare services, Montessori preschool & kindergarten, ECEAP kindergarten, pastoral care, and in-home care team ministries. Josephine's child care center provides an innovative approach to child care in a unique setting. The center benefits children, their family and elders through mutual interactions and continuing relationships. Our staff cares for infants and toddlers in the “Little House,” a separate on-campus building. Parents can enroll infants starting at six weeks of age. In addition to the Montessori preschool described in a separate link to the left, Josephine offers four distinct preschool programs based on the child's developmental readiness. Classes are held in recently remodeled settings located throughout the facility, and regular interaction between residents and the children is encouraged. These intergenerational interactions benefit residents and children. his program meets the needs of parents whose work schedule does not coincide with school hours. Transportation from Josephine to and from Cedarhome, Twin City , or Stanwood Elementary is provided by Josephine staff members. Care during winter and spring breaks (corresponding with the Stanwood school district schedule) is also available. During the summer, Josephine offers all-day camps with weekly field trips and other learning and recreational opportunities.
