We strive to create an atmosphere which not only fosters independence and creative expression, but also recognizes the unique talents of every child. Our cheerful, fun-filled setting provides each child with a playground for learning and an enriching start to his or her education. We establish foundations for learning by providing an environment that encourages play, promotes curiosity and challenges thinking.
Academic skills and social and emotional development are viewed as complimentary processes. Our curriculum and small class size allow each child to progress at his or her own level with maximum teacher attention. We believe children learn best when they are curious, inventive and attentive. We use play as the vehicle by which a child learns to make friends, solve problems, understand math and science and appreciate music and art.

Each age group has specific exit skills that we expect children to meet before entering the next classroom. These are minimal expectations for growth in self-help, social skills, gross and fine motor skills, language arts and math.
Fun and games is the hallmark of our summer camp. Unplug from technology and let your child enjoy weekly camp themes, water play, field days, science experiments, outdoor games, crafts and special activities. We have a class for 5 -7 year old children in the summer too! Physical activity and free play are very important for young children.
