Purpose & Philosophy
Our purpose and philosophy is to create a family-oriented program which offers developmentally appropriate activities to promote each child's spiritual, mental, social, physical, and emotional development through play, music, art, science, and literature.
The children will have opportunities for exploring, experimenting and questioning, which will encourage curiosity, creativity, and expression. Since all children are individuals, we believe in developing the whole child in accordance with his/her needs and learning style.
