Philosophy of Learning
Little People’s Place Child Development Center is dedicated to the preschooler’s critical period of development from the ages of 14 months to five and children in kindergarten through school age. We invite all families to join our facility regardless of race, color, creed, abilities, or national origin.
Our early childhood philosophy places the child’s development of high morals and values and the acquisition of a healthy self-concept by providing a balance of child initiated and teacher directed activities. These activities are planned to reflect the interest children’s primary language and cultural background. By providing a safe and nurturing environment, children develop feelings of being loved and self-worth. This allows them to successfully develop to their positive self-concept that will foster important values—empathy for others, sharing, caring, coping skills, independence, and interaction with others.
We are committed to the retention and excellence of our staff. We encourage and facilitate credentialing of all staff immediately upon employment under the guidance of our director. We aim to provide a loving, friendly, and sensory-oriented environment that integrates. The child’s self-concept blossoms through our unique, individualized, and creative curriculum.
Discipline is based on reasoning and mutual respect; it is always consistent and fair. The teacher does not direct, but guides the children to encourage them to successfully discipline themselves.
Finally, we strive to meet the needs and expectations of our parents. We keep an open line of communication between families and staff to create a happy, healthy environment in which your precious little persons can live and learn each day.
