EDUCATION PHILOSOPHY

Our educational philosophy is a well -rounded program, which encourages growth in spirituality, emotions, academic development, and social skills. Our combinations of work and play, nurturing and encouraging, loving and guiding, respecting and sharing each unique child and their needs makes our early childhood goals fun, appropriate and child-centered. This philosophy is reflected in our daily curriculum where our activities are fun-filled with creativity and build in room for growth while respecting the needs of each child’s individuality and pattern of development.

 

DISCIPLINE POLICY

Discipline is a tool, which helps children learn about a positive self-image when they are guided with love and care to make the appropriate decisions. Our focus is to "redirect" the children in a positive way without hurting, showing or generating shame or guilt. Discipline is encouraging a child to "choose" to do what is right. It is not MAKING a child do what is right. Recognizing feelings is an important part of making the appropriate decision. We use a "How do you feel?"chair. This gives the children a place to think about how they feel and what they can do about it.

Providing the children with an opportunity to recognize their feelings and setting gentle limits show our children that we love and care for them.
