Just Getting Started.....
The transition to child care can be hard on some children and parents! Feel free to stop in and talk with us before your child starts. Early mornings and late afternoons are typically good times to stop in. On those days when you miss your little guy/girl and wish your little one was right there next to you, give us a call! We'll be happy to tell you how his/her day is going!
We try to create a very “at home” atmosphere. We strive to make each and every child feel loved and nurtured. Each child will know that they are an important part of our group!
We give each child individual attention. Whenever we have a free minute we talk with the children one-on-one, play hand games, make funny faces and we even teach sign language. We also give lots of positive attention when we are changing diapers and bottle feeding.
We provide a lesson plan for parents to read so you have an idea of what is going on during the week. Each week has a new theme. We focus on the fundamental developmental areas such as language, motor skills, and sensory, just to name a few.
We also take lots of pictures so you can not only read about what we are doing, but see it too! Sometimes these pictures are posted in the room, sometimes they go home with the daily sheets and we also use some for your child’s classroom portfolio.
Toddlers
This room is full of energy and excitement. We are fun, loving, caring, and love to learn using our hands, eyes, and ears.
The room is full of fun areas from our indoor learning area to our house and puzzle area to the block area! Our favorite area is our group rug where we enjoy reading, dancing, and singing songs together as a group. We love to get messy when we express ourselves with art and sensory materials. Our daily routine is posted in the classroom. We enjoy the outside playground time on most days. It feels so good to run and climb!
We also take lots of pictures so you can not only read about what we are doing, but see it too!
3 year olds
We are happy to welcome you to this classroom. This room is full of happy, energetic, silly, and loving three year olds. We love learning, playing, singing, dancing, reading stories, and telling stories. We also form great bonds and relationships with our friends and teachers.
This room is organized with many different areas which allow the children to explore, play, and learn.
We also enjoy being creative during art time, and have a blast during sensory activities. Our work is sometimes messy but it is ALWAYS FUN!
We also take lots of pictures so you can not only read about what we are doing, but see it too!
