About Kiddie City

Kiddie City Child Care Community's Mission




To Provide child-initiated play that lays a foundation for learning and academic success. Through play, children learn to interact with others, recognize, and solve problems, develop language skills, and discover their human potential. In essence, play supports children as they make sense of and find their place in the world.

Goal

To provide an atmosphere that encourages a positive self esteem and regulation.

A message of positive regard and respect for the individual is evident.

Appropriate verbal interactions with children and adults are modeled using positive words to accomplish goals in a peaceful way.

Encouragement is provided as children transition from emerging to estabished skills.

Consistent guidance is used to support learning and optimal growth in children.

Philosophy


Children are active learners and as such, need plenty of hands-on experiences with authentic materials. When children are engaged in meaningful activities that are relevant to their lives, numerous regions of the brain are simultaneously activated.


The classroom is enriched with a variety of multi-sensory objects of different shapes, sizes, and colors to promote problem-solving skills. Warm, comfortable settings encourage creativity and imagination in children. Developmentally and age appropriate activities enable the connection between learning and positive emotions throughout the day.


When children feel secure they can reach their full potential in cognitive, physical, social, and emotional development. A non-threatening learning environment is a crucial component of the classroom for children to freely explore, experiment, and encounter stimulating new ideas. Children move freely among the room as they transmit ideas from one learning center to another.


The Kiddie City Child Care Community acknowledges and accepts the diversity of our ever changing world. This community understands and appreciates the differences and similarities of people and promotes respect and admiration for people of differing races, genders, creeds, ethnicity, and abilities throughout our small community and the expanding community around us.
