• Healthy morning and afternoon snacks.
• Assistance in the toilet training process.
• Time for conversation between parents and teachers.
• Daily activities posted in the classroom.
• A fun and informative monthly newsletter.

• We believe in and support the uniqueness of each family and child.
• We nurture and encourage each child to grow intellectually, socially, emotionally, physically, and spiritually.
• Our curriculum is designed to stimulate these areas of learning in the developmentally appropriate manner.  The daily schedule, curriculum, and activities for each group are posted in the classroom and available to parents.
• We invite and encourage parent involvement.

The Children's Center offers optional enrichment opportunities:

• Kid Fit - A health, fitness, and aerobics class.
