School Philosophy and Mission

"The philosophy of our program is based on the belief that parents and staff work together as a supportive team and a primary agent in motivating children to develop. We meet the needs of multi-cultural and multi-racial backgrounds of our community. We provide children a variety of age appropriate play activities and experiences in a comfortable and non-competitive environment.


We have specific programs, facilities, and classrooms to accommodate non-potty trained children and children in training.

We believe that experience in a good child care setting can prepare children for later life experiences. This can best be accomplished in an environment in which the adults promote self-expression and creativity, but also pay attention to the importance of self-control and mutual respect. The climate at our school encourages children to make choices, take responsibility for these choices, and develop self-discipline. In an atmosphere of trust and respect, each child finds opportunities to realize his/her own self-worth and personal growth.
