Program Philosophy

Children's World is a developmental learning center whose main goal is to provide high quality care in a safe and nurturing environment that promotes the development of the whole child while responding to families' needs. We believe that families are the primary educators of their children. The role of our program is to partner with the families in the care and education of each child.

​Our center promotes a child-first attitude. Your child and his/her well-being is our top priority. It is the responsibility of every staff member to work as a team to ensure a high quality of care is provided by Children's World.

​Children's World strives to provide the following to your child.
  • ​Providing a safe, consistent, and nurturing atmosphere.
  • Respect your child and appreciate them for his/her unique characteristics.
  • Allow your child to grow and explore at their own rate.
  • Provide a consistent daily routine that  includes a balance of activities and quiet time.
  • Make nutritious snacks, breakfasts, and lunches available that contribute to the growth and development of a healthy child.
  • Offer alternatives when your child demonstrates inappropriate behavior, set limits for your child, and provide your child with natural and logical consequences for their behavior.
​We ask families to partner with Children's World staff by doing the following.
  • ​Ask questions and provide information about the developmental needs of your child.
  • Keep informed of your child's care and development by talking to staff and reading daily sheets and other written communications.
  • Work with the staff to find viable solutions to problems as needed.
