School Philosophy & Day in the Life

School Philosophy and Mission

"DAP is a philosophy base of a program. It means that each part of the program is developed for the age and stage of a particular child. Toys, books, materials, equipment, supplies and furniture are carefully selected to include in the classroom environment of infants, toddlers, preschoolers and school-aged children. Curriculum is enthusiastically planned and implemented to be respectful, fun and stimulating for each age. Adult caregivers are academically trained and professional in all of their work with children and families"

Typical Day-In-The-Life At This School

""Baby Ducks" - Infant Schedule

6:45 - 8:30 Typical arrival time for our babies.
Little ones are warmly welcomed to the day at EduKids through conversation with family, sharing infomation about the infant's home to school transition and beginning sleep or play for the day.
8:30 - Midday Individual attention to each "Baby Duck" through play with a variety of carefully selected toys, sensory activities to stimulate their developing body awareness, song and music to sooth and stimulate language and natural rhythms, relaxing exercise and friendship building through continual attention to names, touch, talk and smiles.
Midday - 4:30 Continued attention to each baby with afternoon strolls and play outdoors if weather permits. As infants enjoy floor mat time to stretch, roll, grasp and toddle, they also enjoy rides outside in their "bye-bye buggy" to see nature and other children at play. The warmth of the afternoon sees our little ones enjoying the sun and each other!
4:30 - 6:00 Typically the time we say "Good Bye"
As each "Baby Duck's" family comes to the Center to get their child, we review the day and plan for the next. Children are ready to leave after quiet, calm activities at the day's end.
