All children deserve a safe and educational environment. In this program, we believe every child has the right to a personalized and well-rounded curriculum. The key to education is combining consistency and structure with a flexibility that allows for creativity and learning independence. The preschool years are some of the most vital in a lifetime. What happens during these years can impact everything from their self-esteem to their approach to learning. Developing on their natural curiosity to create a love for learning while reinforcing feeling good about themselves is an essential part of child care. We maintain a friendly and creative environment that respects the fundamentals of Charlotte Mason's philosophy. Charlotte Mason was a British educator and author who lived in the mid-1800's. Her method, the Charlotte Mason method, is based around the idea that education has three facets. In her words, "Education is an atmosphere, a discipline, a life." Their surroundings, well-formed habits, and experiences give children the skills they need to maintain a love of learning throughout their lives. "
