Child Care
Where Education Matters
Program Philosophy
Michael's Child Care (MCC) gives children ages 6-weeks through 5 years enriching opportunities to develop the whole child. We focus on learning through child-directed play experiences and curriculum time.
We believe a balance of play and preschool enhances growth and development in all learning areas: physical, social and emotional, fine/gross motor, cognitive, and language/literacy. This is achieved in a safe and loving environment with teachers who are dedicated to enriching children’s lives.
At MCC, we believe that, from brith, all children are unique and ready to learn. With support from caring teachers and a rich learning environment, children will learn, play, explore, create, and develop relationships that will have them be successful throughout their years. Our program philosophy is built on the following beliefs:
-
Trusting, nurturing, and respectful relationships between children and adults are essential for development.
-
A teacher’s role is as a facilitator/guide.
-
A play-based, hands-on active learning environment is most appropriate for young learners.
